Looks like your creation date declaration is not of type `java.util.Date`. Why?

I did exactly like they asked. I even searched on google and it was the same as mine. What I did wrong? I can't figure out.... Thank you!

com/example/BlogPost.java
package com.example;

import java.util.Date;

public class BlogPost {
  private String mAuthor;
  private String mTitle;
  private String mBody;
  private String mCategory;
  private String mCreationDate;
}

package com.example;

import java.util.Date;

public class BlogPost {
  private String mAuthor;
  private String mTitle;
  private String mBody;
  private String mCategory;
  private Date mCreationDate;
}

The creation date needs to be of type Date and not String, change that and its should work.
