Answer 1

You can change how it is being stored. Instead of one column, have 3:
month , day , year ;

This allows more flexibilityand you can sort it more easily. Since it is numbers month(1-12) instead of strings, it will be more easily sorted.

SELECT month,day,year
FROM tables
ORDER BY month,day,year DESC;
