oscillation?!?

this is a rough excerpt of my conversation with mama yesterday - bloody hillarious! :)

mama: tell me again wht exactly your OSCE exam is?
me: OSCE = objective structured clinical examination
mama: oooh...O.S.C.E.....ok...when i tell ppl, they keep asking me about oscillation..
me: oscillation? bt im doing medicine - not physics! - why oscillation?
mama: i dunno...u juz did urology right...oscillation might play a part....
me: haha...bt isnt it dangling, as opposed to oscillation?...and NO! either way, they dont play a part in the urology assessment....

moms are the best aren't they? ;)
