EventEmitter doesn't seem to work in iOS

[camdagr8]

Description

Seems to be an import problem with the EventEmitter. When it's being imported into anything, it doesn't seem to be able to be found. I'm using the parse/react-native module. When it imports the EventEmitter and errors.

See this issue here.

React Native version:

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a blank RN project
2. Add the Parse SDK: npm install --save parse
3. Try to import Parse: `import Parse from 'parse/react-native;'
4. Cry 😭

Expected Results

I expect there to be no errors and for my code to compile.

I've tried quite a few things and still can't seem to get a work-around for this.
