In Japan, 5-5 is also known as 'Boys Day'.  And since we have such a large population of Japanese people here in Hawaii, that day is also recognized here.  8)

3-3 is 'Girls Day'  :)

Everytime we get a thing like that {i.e. 4-4-04, 9-9-99, etc.}, that's our "Senior Skip Day"... Our class won't get one, as it would be 8-8-08... sucks.

But 4-4-04 was a Sunday, so it wouldn't have meant anything with regards to "Skip day"... ::)

I guess that applies to your school? ???

When I was a senior in HS (1997-98), our class had an unofficial "Skip day" on 3/13 (which was Friday the 13th) ;D, but I chose not to take part in that, since I felt that my attendance was important.
