I am failing to create a parse obejct, need help with my code

Challenge Task 1 of 3

In this sample calendar app, we are adding new calendar events on Parse. Start by declaring a new ParseObject variable in the addNewEvent() method and use "Event" as the class name parameter for the constructor.

MainActivity.java 
import android.app.Activity;
import com.parse.ParseObject;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    // Some code omitted!

    public void addNewEvent() {
        // param 1 = year, param 2 = month, param 3 = day
        Date date = new GregorianCalendar(2014, 0, 1).getTime(); 

        // Add code here!
      ParseObject Event = new ParseObjectEvent();
   }
}

Hi there,

Challenge 1 is this:

ParseObject parseObject = new ParseObject("Event");

Hope that gets you on your way.

Steve.
