The Leap Year

Yeah I know I no blog long long time and gonna go missing wiht mum's op coming up and my medical thingy coming up


Back to today's topic

See we human are not perfect, there is nothing as perfection hence the leap year lol

A person who was born on February 29 may be called a "leapling". In non-leap years they may celebrate their birthday on 28 February or 1 March.

Although the modern calendar counts a year as 365 days, a complete revolution around the sun takes approximately 365 days and 6 hours. Every four years, an extra twenty-four hours have accumulated, so one extra day is added to that calendar to keep the count coordinated with the sun's apparent position.


Kind of funky to be born today
