ปีอธิกสุรทินคือปีที่เดือนกุมภาพันธ์มี 29 วัน

ซึ่งจะเกิดขึ้นทุก ๆ 4 ปีนะคะ

ตอนที่แนนเรียนที่มหาวิทยาลัย มีรุ่นน้องคนหนึ่งเกิดวันที่ 29 กุมภาพันธ์ค่ะ

รุ่นน้องคนนั้นบอกว่าการเกิดในปีอธิกสุรทินทำให้เขารู้สึกเป็นคนพิเศษ

เพราะว่าในโลกนี้ มีคนไม่เยอะที่เกิดในวันที่ 29 กุมภาพันธ์

เวลาแนะนำตัวกับคนอื่น ๆ ว่าเขาเกิดวันนี้ ก็จะช่วยให้คนอื่นจำเขาได้ง่ายขึ้น

แต่ในอีกทางหนึ่ง 

การเกิดวันที่ 29 กุมภาพันธ์ แปลว่าเขาจะได้ฉลองวันเกิดในวันเกิดจริง ๆ แค่สี่ปีครั้ง

ส่วนใหญ่ก็จะต้องฉลองวันเกิดในวันที่ 28 กุมภาพันธ์หรือ 1 มีนาคมค่ะ
