Well, I was just chilling one day and suddenly this question popped into my head: how many more days until June 26? I was like, “Damn, I gotta figure this out right away.”

First off, I grabbed my phone. I mean, who doesn’t use their phone these days? I opened up the calendar app. It’s like my go – to thing for all date – related stuff. I scrolled through the months, passing by all those random days and events that I never really pay attention to.
Then I finally landed on June. I stared at the 26th, kind of excited to find out the answer. But I realized I had no idea how to calculate it right then. So, I started counting the days one by one with my finger on the screen. It was a pain in the ass, but I was determined.
As I was counting, I thought there had to be an easier way. So, I remembered there were some calculator apps that could do this kind of thing. I closed the calendar app and opened up the calculator app on my phone. I started typing in the numbers. I put in today’s date and June 26, and hit the calculate button.
But guess what? The calculator app gave me some weird result that didn’t make any sense. I was like, “What the hell is this?” I double – checked the dates I entered, and yep, I had done it right. So, I deleted the result and tried again. Still, it gave me a wrong number.
I was getting frustrated at this point. Then I thought, “Screw the app, I’ll do it the old – fashioned way.” I took out a pen and a piece of paper. I wrote down today’s date and June 26. Then I started counting the days month by month. I counted the days left in this month, then added up the days of the full months in between, and finally added the days in June until the 26th.

It took me a while, but I finally got the answer. I was so relieved. I don’t know why I was so obsessed with finding out how many days were left until June 26, but now I know. And it feels good to have figured it out on my own, even though it was a bit of a hassle.
