What a pleasant surprise!

I had dinner with my friend Liezel and my fiance 2 nights ago at Metrowalk. I was the one tasked to look for a table for us. So, I went to a table that was vacant with a good view and conducive for discussion (even though the table hasn't been cleaned yet). I called a waiter to clean the table and while waiting for him, I saw a Nokia 6600 cellphone. I then conluded that one of the people who previously occupied that table must have left it. There's a SWAT office in Metrowalk and when I saw someone from SWAT passed by, I gave it to him because I don't know if we will still be around when the owner of the cellphone comes back. And he agreed to take responsibility on the said unit, he told me to tell the person (in case the person arrives while we are still there) to claim it at SWAT. He gave me his name and told me that he will just assist some people and will be out of his office for awhile.

After an hour, 2 people approached us and asked us if we saw a cellphone. So I told them about the details. It turned out that the owner of the cellphone is Calvin Millado (yes, the former singer). They waited for the SWAT person and after a few minutes, they got the cellphone. Calvin was very grateful and asked us if we are free on Saturday afternoon. Of course we asked why and he told us that he will treat us, he'll give us free tickets to the stage play Beauty & the Beast! I was so elated! Beauty & the Beast is my all-time favorite Disney movie. I was suppose to watch it but due to the financial difficulties I'm experiencing lately, I decided against it. So you could just imagine my surprise and excitement when he told us about it:) He told me to that he'll leave the tickets at the entrance and it will be under my name, we exchanged cellphone numbers in case a problem comes up.

Can I just say that God is sooo good, he has proven once again that He will answer even the smallest desires of our hearts and he will reward us for the good things we've done. I know this wish is so superficial but to tell you frankly, it came at the right time. I met Liezel because she has a big and I mean big problem and this pleasant surprise really made her happy. She used to be in the cast of The Little Mermaid and so she was as excited as I was (even more I think) when Calvin promised to give us tickets 'coz most of the cast of Beauty and the Beast were casts of Little Mermaid before which means she's going to watch her friends.

So there, I'm going to watch Beauty and the Beast on Saturday!
