Celebrating A Special & Unique Pi Day!

Take a look at the date and time of this blog post. Do you notice something amazing?

Yes! It is March 14 where Maths Geeks around the world celebrate the number Pi, which is often rounded off to 3.14, and we call it Pi Day.

However, take a closer look and you will notice that TODAY, at 9:26am 53 seconds, it is the most magical year of the century and we're here to celebrate Pi Day of the Century!

Here's how it works out:
March 14, 2015 at 9:26:53am is translated to 3/14/15 9:26:53
And Pi = 3.141592653

Get it? Isn't that amazing?!?! Wow!!!

And in celebration of Pi Day of the Century, here's a video of a Pi Song and a interesting game called Pi Ball. Grab a pie and enjoy the clip!
