Spoilery!
An interesting entry! I'm glad some actual conflict was added to this one. Kinda felt like something would happen with mia and michael. I don't THINK it'll last but who knows?
Also people give the writing a of Mia a lot of crap in this one but I think everyone fails to remember how melodramatic teenagers are in general, and this girl clearly has an anxiety disorder as well. Her inner monologue mirrors exactly my emotions around dating and friends in high school, only I was much more shy than Mia. Give her some credit, guys!
All in all a good entry! I like that it breaches the idea of sex in a young relationship instead of acting like it's a taboo as well. So many young girls feel the pressure of sex and the idea that if they don't sleep with their boyfriend, then they will get broken up with. It's a sad truth and I'm glad it was touched on, even in a lighthearted way.
