IT stands for information technologies. More specifically, I study programming and app development. Lectures are not mandatory and people don't really take notes because the lectures are about listening to the lecturer to get the meaning of what is in the materials.
Well, I don't want to say you're naive, but I don't think that functions in real life. I try to get to know people around me, but you know, everyone is focused on their studies or have their group of friends from the past there.

But concerning my hand, I feel it mostly at maths and that is the subject where I need to practise no matter if I am good at that, and that is done by writing down equations. If someone would hand me over theirs, I wouldn't learn from that. Also, there is the complication that it is unacceptable to help each other with assignments. In other words, yes, we can discuss it to some extend, but I have to work on my own.

To be honest, sometimes venting doesn't help. I write mostly because I search for understanding and possible pieces of advice for my situation.

You're right, in past few months, I've been through a lot. I can say that the summer break was awful. Not only this year, but this one was the worst...
