Printing Gregorian Calendar Default Constructor?

I am having trouble with getting output to be what I want. I can get the output when a user enters their values for month, day and time using a scanner object and they print correctly, but what I want is before they input values, to display the current date. Here is a snippet of what I am working with *these are in two separate files, the first has all the variables etc, the second has the main method.

In one java file:

Java Code:

private int numOfGuests, month, day, year;
private GregorianCalendar eventDate = new GregorianCalendar();
public Event()
{
this("not assigned" , 0, new GregorianCalendar());
}
public int getDay() {

[Code] ....

This gives me 0-0-0 as a result instead of current date.
