revision panic ...

... has finally descended. I was reading The Times about a wife witnessing her husband's sudden death. He died from a very rare heart condition (hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy), and instead of reading the moving account, I sat on the tube, trying to figure out the symptoms and signs for HOCM?! (For the medics amoung you: jerky carotid pulse, double apical pulsation - yes, that one!)

Then, I saw myself on the CCTV and wondered "who is that girl with the same hair and bag as me?"

Do I need to say any more? Only 6 days to go until finals kick off ...
