Monday's child
Monday’s child is fair of face
Tuesday’s child is full of grace
Wednesday’s child is full of woe
Thursday’s child has far to go
Friday’s child is loving and giving
Saturday’s child works hard for a living
But the child who was born on Sunday
Will just watch television all day.

Calculate what day were you born.
Write your date of birth, e.g. April 1st 1989
Take the last two digits of the year 89
Divide by 4 (ignore the remainder if any) 22
Add these two numbers 89 + 22 = 111
Add the date of the day 111 + 1 = 112
Add the number given for the year in the table bellow 112 + 0 = 112
Add the number given for the month in the table bellow
Watch out for leap years ! 112 + 0 = 112
Divide by seven and keep the remainder 112 / 7 = 16 Remainder=0
