You are creating a Date object  which is a representation of a certain point in the timeline  This means that it will have all the parts necessary to represent it correctly  including minutes and seconds and so on  Because you initialize it from a string containing only a part of the date  the missing data will be defaulted   I assume you are then  printing  this Date object  but without actually specifying a format like you did when parsing it  Use the same SimpleDateFormat but call the reverse method  format Date  as Holger suggested

You may need to format the out put as follows   SimpleDateFormat sdf   new SimpleDateFormat  yyyy-MM-dd    Date convertedCurrentDate   sdf parse  2013-09-18    String date sdf format convertedCurrentDate    System out println date     Use   String convertedCurrentDate  sdf format sdf parse  2013-09-18       Output   2013-09-18
