I don't really know what is going on with the treet...

import java.util.Date;
import com.teamtreehouse.Treet;

public class Example {

public static void main(String[] args){
Treet treet = new Treet(
"realDonaldTrump",
  "I will be watching the election results"+
  "from Trump Tower in Manhattan with my"
  +"family and friends. Very exciting!",
  new Date(1478697478000L));
  System.out.printf("This is a new Treet: %s %n",treet);

}
}

okay as i'm learning trump won the elections so i wanted to make this one memorable, however, the treet i'm getting is something i should be worried about?? what does it mean? This is a new Treet: com.teamtreehouse.Treet@6d06d69c

Lucas,

I wouldn't worry too much about what is being returned to the screen it is explained in full in one of the following lessons. Essentially because treet in your code is an instance of an object when you print it you get the reference to it, rather than its contents.

Hope this helps.
