When 29 meets Febuary...


Happy Leap Day!!!

Happy Birthday for those who born today - 29th Feb!
Finally, the day comes to you! 
You are allowed to buy 4 cakes to celebrate your long waited birthday
and also make 12 wishes before you blow out candles. n_____n


This will be the most sincere and warmest birthday wish I made for these 4years,
Yes! I really mean it~~ 


ah ha...... there is something I want to share...found this interesting article in the Internet!
Why don't you try it out, when you found out that you do not have enough gloves to wear~




Women propose to their men???

According to an old Irish legend, or possibly history, St Bridget struck a deal with St Patrick to allow women to propose to men – and not just the other way around – every 4 years. This is believed to have been introduced to balance the traditional roles of men and women in a similar way to how Leap Day balances the calendar.
In some places, Leap Day has been known as “Bachelors’ Day” for the same reason. A man was expected to pay a penalty, such as a gown or money, if he refused a marriage proposal from a woman on Leap Day. In many European countries, especially in the upper classes of society, tradition dictates that any man who refuses a woman's proposal on February 29 has to buy her 12 pairs of gloves. The intention is that the woman can wear the gloves to hide the embarrassment of not having an engagement ring. During the middle ages there were laws governing this tradition.
