The Divine Alarm Clock

You know how some people talk about "divine appointments," where what appears to be a coincidence may be orchestrated by God? Well, something like that happened to me this morning. But it was more like a "divine alarm clock." Let me explain...

I was up with Jojo from about 1:30AM to almost 4:00AM this morning and so I was pretty sleepy when I got up this morning around 9 something and took a shower. Then, I got full dressed, shaved and ready for the day (which I normally don't do first thing in the morning on the weekends) and sat down at the PC to check my e-mail. I had totally forgotten I had a breakfast appointment this morning at 11AM. It was 10:30 and I got an e-mail from the person I was supposed to meet saying, "See you at 11!"

So with 30 minutes left, I went straight to my meeting at Starbucks and even got there early! I got to chat with a great guy I went to school with in the Philippines in 6th grade! His name is John D. Kim and he's been in a number of films, as well as my favorite TV show: Alias! His dad is still a missionary in the Philippines and interestingly, has also been called by God to train up OFWs for strategic ministries in closed countries. Pretty cool.

Thanks, God. For waking me up and reminding me about this morning's meeting!

That's so cool about waking up just when you needed to and getting that e-mail.

Speaking of Alias, we can't wait for season 3. We re-watched Sleepless in Seattle the other day and realized that Jack Bristo was in that film. Very cool...

Yeah, that will be a DVD set to add to my collection. John Kim told me he was in an episode called Crossings, and he got to shove Vaughn into a wall or something while yelling in Korean. He said he got to meet Jennifer Garner, too, and she was really nice. I also got to see more of how she really is in "13 going on 30" recently. Oh, and that Alias game comes out for PC next month, too!
