I feel like posting today because today is the 29th February. Jarang kali ah menyambut hari bulan ani salnya it happens every 4 tahun sekali. Happy Birthday to anyone yang celebrate hari jadinya pada hari bulan ani. It makes me wonder, macam mana durang yang lahir pada 29hb February ani celebrate birthday durang ani ah since every 4 years saja ada 29hb February ani. Barangkali durang celebrate 4 tahun sekali saja nie, which is sad tu eh, just imagine every year normally bulan February ani ada 28 days saja and orang jadi kebiasaan sudah tentang inda wujudnya 29hb ani then every year, macam nada 29hb feb ani.. like lapas 28th february, 1st March tia.. inda jua kana wish birthday tu rah durang.. eeeh.. ermm.. (long pause...) Eh wait.. kamu faham kah? aku pun sendiri inda faham apa yang ku kan cakapkan ani.. inda ku pandai explain eeh.. aaahh lupakan saja, the bottom point is for people born on this date, their actual birthday happens only once every four years and It be hard for people to mark it on an online datebook. You may have a birthday this year, but next year people may forget because it doesn't show up on their datebook.
Anywaysss.. why in the newspaper i didn't see any advertisement regarding about special discount to anyone who celebrates their birthday on the 29th February? kenapa nada promotion on every restaurants, say Empire, Sheraton, RBC restaurants, etc..?? why nada? 29th February is a special day for those yang lahir on that day because jarang bah kan dapat this date (well i did mentioned sad for them and I take back my words..) i just realised this date is soooo sepesial because you can say that you are one year old every four years. By the time you have completed 100 years living, you still say you are just 25 years old.. tee hee hee..

Why Do We Have Leap Day?
Our solar year (the time required for Earth to travel once around the Sun) is 365.24219 days.
Our calendar year is either 365 days in non leap years or 366 days in leap years (Feb 29th inserted).
A leap year every 4 years gives us 365.25 days, sending our seasons off course and eventually in the wrong months.
To change .25 days to .24219, we need to skip a few leap days (Feb 29ths) .... century marks not divisible by 400. So with a few calculations tweek the calendar by skipping 3 of 4 century leap years to average out our calendar year to 365.2425, which is pretty darn close to the solar year 365.24219.
