Ok I shall blog about something before the end of February 29th which happens every 4 years... Maybe I should just plagiarise the history of the leap years to begin with.
A leap year (or intercalary year) is a year containing one or more extra days (or, in the case of lunisolar calendars, an extra month) in order to keep the calendar year synchronised with the astronomical or seasonal year. For example, in the Gregorian calender, February would have 29 days in a leap year instead of the usual 28. Because seasons and astronomical events do not repeat at an exact number of full days, a calendar which had the same number of days in each year would, over time, drift with respect to the event it was supposed to track. By occasionally inserting (or intercalating) an additional day or month into the year, the drift can be corrected. A year which is not a leap year is called a common year. - Wikipedia
My town looks deserted today, dunno why also. Maybe it's because of the association of Feb 29th with something nasty or zombies are coming out tonight... Anyway, I'm still struggling to finish the pharmacy practice monographs... Read through all 38 of them but cannot remember any except Cimetidine and Ranitidine... reason being I'm doing Famotidine...Nevermind, hopefully it'll get better. Maybe I should really do something crazy before the end of today like jump off the second floor of my house or something...
Gundams and less than exciting diary :P
