What a way to go.

Today I had my first session of Intro to Epidemiology. It's a blah-type Public Health subject that has little to do with psychology but I have to do it, since it's part of the Masters in HEALTH Psychology. I was sitting next to my buddy, Nick. If I haven't mentioned Nick already, let me introduce you. Nick is tall, good-looking and athletic. The fact that he's studying a Masters in Psychology means one could reasonably assume he's intelligent as well. And a nice guy. What more could you want if you were like.. a 22 year old single girl in Adelaide?? Which obviously I AM NOT, but there you go. Now you know Nick.

So me and Nick are sitting in Epidemiology and the lecturer is discussing the difference between prevalence and incidence when it comes to disease. She's throwing up various tables listing all manner of diseases and death rates and statistics. Just as my eyes are glazing over, Nick leans over to me and whispers, "What's congenital malfornication?"

I study the table a little more closely, trying to find what he's talking about. Finally I see a line that reads "Congenital Malformation", so I lean back to him and whisper "Congenital Malformation??", and he whispers back "Malformation?". I give him a little nod and we both go back to concentrating on our notes.

A few seconds later, Nick leans back over and whispers "I thought it said congenital malfornication and I was seriously wondering what those people were doing when they were having sex. I mean... what the...? How were they...? What were they...?"

And we both giggled like school children.
