You did not identify which calendar you mean by "ours", which in itself kind of answers your question. Around the world there are many different calendars being used, based on things like culture or religion. In terms of duration, some are based on the sun and some on the moon and some combining the two. So your calendar, be it the Islamic or Jewish or Gregorian or Bengali or one of the many others used, would be different to the Chinese calendar and all of the other ones.
