Featured Music Review: 30 Seconds to Mars
Proudly presenting our weekly Featured Music Review by ICallUponMe Review of 30 Seconds to Mars' album

The reindeer have come out on top!
After a week of competing to see who is Santa's superior helper... The Reindeer or Elves, it has been decided by YOU that the Reindeer are by far the better of the two! After the first few competitions, the reindeer's had a huge lead; the standings were no where close. Then the elves began to make a comeback! However, the reindeer helped to keep that comeback minimal. In the end, the reindeer have come out victorious with a score of 441 - 200. Room Competition

Back to School Blues
Returning to the daily grind With all the parties, vacations, and adventures we've had during the Christmas and New Year holidays, it's hard to go back to the everyday routine of going to school. But just because the hols are over doesn't mean that the fun is done. We want to know all about it as well! Tell us the most exciting thing you did during the holidays (50 words or less) in the competition form below and wow us with your adventures. Of course, we don't need to know how you single-handedly piloted a spaceship or fought off pirates with your bare hands and a banana, but we do want to hear what you really did as opposed to what you did in your imagination.

The Tuesday Ten
If you like it then you should've put a ring on it Sorry ladies, but one of the Jonas Brothers finally put a ring on it. Seems that Kevin, the eldest JoBro, got married in a snowy December ceremony with his fianceé Danielle Deleasa in Oheka Castle in New York. To complete the princess treatment, he even gave the blushing bride a pair of glass slippers. How's that for a fairy-tale wedding? (As if getting married to a Jonas Brother wasn't enough of a fairy tale!) And it seems that that's not the only wedding in the cards recently. Love was in the air as the bells chimed in for 2010 when resident funny man Vince Vaughn also got hitched to his real estate agent girlfriend Kyla Weber in a ceremony in Chicago. It's nice to know that even though he became famous for being a wedding crasher, at least there were no cra... By on 05th January 2010 05:02am

Extra! Extra!
A bit of spring cleaning in the Catalogue goes a long way... After all the celebrations during Christmas and New Year, we totally forgot to clean up the storage rooms! (Yeah, that's what you get for drinking strawberry daiquiris in the middle of the day.) So as soon as we woke up from our 3-night long New Year's party, we immediately got to work. The problem is that the furni storage room is quite dusty and messy, and Kitty seems to be allergic to dust and has decided to abandon us in favour of watching America's Next Top Model. So in order to clear out space for this year's incoming furni lines, we're putting various items on sale for the next few days. All of these items will only be available for 3 days at a time; afterwards, we're taking them down from the Catalogue and presenting you with m... By on 05th January 2010 02:31am

Sweeter Than A Candy Cane
Congratulations to the winners of the Holiday Moments competition. Unless you're Scrooge, it's hard not to feel sentimental over the holidays, and as predicted, our little pixelated hearts were warmed by the Holiday Moments you shared. Congratulations to the Habbos who made us smile and sigh a collective "awww": Lovelyangel.
