September 31?

Under the Sun

I read from theStar regarding the snail mails woes and noted about September 31. Is there a September 31? Ehm, not quite sure of. Let me check. Remembering which month with 30 days or 31 days is tough. Really for me. I don’t know how to use to count by my knuckles.

Therefore, luckily one of my form teacher taught me. She taught me on the memorizing the poem as follows:-

30 days have September,

April, June and November,

All the rest have 31,

Except in February alone,

In leap year one day more.

See, September only have 30 days. And which calendar is the Khor Swee Kim, 82 talking about? But we can’t blame her right since she is already 82.

:P

On this day..
