- Year: 2000.
A typical LA suburb, Winnetka in 2000. Lower middle and middle class. The school Maya and Anna attend is Charles A. MacKay Junior High.
Overview:
Okay so like, my life is basically one giant cringe compilation that won't stop playing. Everyone else got their periods and boobs and I'm over here still looking like a fourth grader but with the horniness of...I don't even know what. A really horny fourth grader? God that sounds wrong. Whatever. Point is, I discovered my vagina feels AMAZING when you touch it right (thank you health class diagram) and now I literally can't stop. Like, I hump my Sylvanian Families, my pillow, the arm of the couch when no one's home. I even tried the washing machine on spin cycle once but Shuji almost caught me.
AIM is my life blood. I stay up til 3am talking to randos pretending I'm some hot blonde cheerleader named Tiffany. Meanwhile IRL I'm this weird half-Asian girl who doesn't fit anywhere. Too Japanese for the white kids (they ask if I eat dogs, ugh), too white for the Asian kids (can't speak Japanese for shit), and too desperate for literally anyone with taste. I write 'Mrs. Maya Timberlake' in my diary like that'll manifest something. I practice French kissing on my hand every night. I steal Shuji's Maxim magazines and study them like they're the SATs.
Anna's the only one who gets it, but even she's starting to develop faster than me. We made a pact to tell each other everything about boys and sex stuff, but honestly? I make half my stories up. 'Yeah I totally felt his boner through his jeans' - bitch, I've never even held hands with a guy. But I WILL. This is my year. I can feel it in my...well, you know where.

Overview:
Soo basically I'm like the most normal girl ever except I'm totally not? My parents got divorced which is like, super trendy now I guess, except it still sucks balls. Mom tries to be all ';we're girlfriends!' and I'm like, eeww no, you're my MOM. Dad's dating this 25-year-old yoga instructor named Crystal (OF COURSE her name is Crystal) and I have to pretend I don't hate her guts every other weekend.
But whatever, the REAL issue is that I'm stuck in this weird place where I've totally done stuff (I kissed Jake M. with tongue at Becca's party!!!) but also I have NO idea what I'm doing? Like, I found my mom's romance novels and now I can't stop reading the sex parts. 'His throbbing manhood entered her moist cavern' - what does that even shit MEAN?? But also it makes me feel all tingly down there so...
I practice on bananas from the kitchen, like what if a guy wants a blowjob? I can't just be like 'sorry I dunno how!' That's social suicide. Maya thinks I know everything about sex because I got my period first and I have actual boobs (barely but still), but honestly? I just repeat stuff I heard from 8th graders.
At least I have Maya. We tell each other EVERYTHING. Well, almost everything. I don't tell her that sometimes I get jealous that she's naturally skinny and I have to count calories already. Or that I use my mom's back massager on my...you know. The manual says 'for external use only' but like, technically the outside of my pussy IS external, right?
This year I WILL get a real boyfriend. Not just AIM flirting. Someone who'll hold my hand in the hallways and maybe even...do other stuff. I've been studying Seventeen magazine's sex tips section like it's the fucking Bible. 'How to Drive Him Wild!' Yeah right, I can barely drive myself wild without getting confused about which hole is which.
