Writing by hand is annoying, and I used to write way more by hand when I was
in middle and high school.

Typing is faster than handwriting for me now. I used to make typos often a
few years back, but I'm way more comfortable with the computer now. I type
almost all of my projects and assignments.
It's good that you don't have too many problems at tax time!

I can imagine! It's hard to keep up when someone's speaking. Writing full
sentences while a lecturer is speaking is impossible.
The good thing is that my professors post their presentation slides online.
I can get all of my notes from there if I miss something.
