Today had my first class of physiology and endocrinology of sexual reproduction (I think that's the name. It's so long I can't remember). Despite the relatively dry name, it was a pretty interesting class. And if all my professors are like this one, school will be fun!

Anyway, one of the interesting things we learned about was false pregnancy. I had no idea that this psychological disorder actually existed; the only time I heard of it was on CSI: Las Vegas. Hehehe. It was an episode where the daughter thought she was really pregnant with her dad's kid, I think, but it turned out to be not true even though she had all the symptoms of pregnancy. I thought it was ... science fiction or something. Guess not. Apparently if you really want a baby or you're really afraid/anxious that you're having a baby, you can actually trick your body into believing it's pregnant (with hormones), so your breasts swell and your tummy gets bigger (abdomen gets filled with H2O), but you're not really pregnant! Interesting, no? Scary, too.

Oh! so we do have one more classmate. That makes four of us, total. Although in this class, we're taking it with the Erasmus psychology students, so it's not just the four of us. There's like around 11 or 12 I think. Dang, that's the smallest class I've ever attended (as far as I can remember, anyway). It's an interesting feeling, though, since it feels like the prof is just talking to you, which in a sense he is. So weird. This'll definitely be a new experience.
