And I Did! now i was part of the band when we became famous we rehearsed every night after school and when we had to go some where far away to preform are teacher sent us our homework, before so we could finish it at home or on the way to our performance. Mom and Dad still expected us to get good grades.

Background
While I was Famous I also purchased a 2,676-acre ranch and changed it into my dream home. I built an amusement park that included a Ferris Wheel and a Roller Coaster. IT also had a swimming pool, ponds, fountains and statues of children playing. I had a rail road built, with a train station, real tracks, and trains. I wanted Neverland to be more than just a home. I wanted it to be a getaway spot for underprivileged seriously ill children and their families. I built a zoo and adopted a Chimpanzee and named him Bubbles.
