Leap day, what should u do?:)

I heard the tradition on leap day from a nurse practitioner. She told me that a woman could 

 propose marriage to her partner on leap day.

I googled for the details. Here it is. Haha, don't miss the opportunity which is only available one day every four years! 得意

Pop the question

It's a British and Irish tradition for women to propose marriage to their partner on leap day. The tradition is thought to date back to fifth-century Ireland, when Saint Bridget complained to Saint Patrick that women were tired of waiting for men to propose. The patroness saint of Ireland was able to convince Saint Patrick to allow women to propose to men once every four years, which became known as "Ladies' Privilege" or "Bachelor's Day."
