having to choose my electives for next sem, worst part is the hell of navigating the uni website to find the syllabuses, why are unis like this

tw: death, auditory hallucinations
had a cup of coffee, hopped in for a bath, put on music, randomly one of the lyric jusy changes to "KILL YOURSELF!" … that was pretty bizzare, maybe I am in fact not a coffee person.
