Creak.

But a happy creak. Am now a purple and white belt in karate. Temporary grade, mind - would probably have helped if I hadn't whapped my partner in the face when we were supposed to be doing stomach attacks. Duh. Baka. Never mind. Getting into the scary stuff now... Am going to sleep well tonight, that's for sure. :p

And there is a gaping hole in my window where the bottom of it used to be. Damn redecoration.
