Featured Movie Review: The Blind Side
Proudly presenting our weekly Featured Movie Review by .!aLi!. Review of The Blind Side
The Blind Side didn't seem like a movie that interested me, as I'm not a huge fan of football, or Sandra Bullock. However, The Blind Side was a beautiful, emotional and inspiring true story movie about having faith in others and reaching out to those in need. Michael Oher is a teenage boy who is known around town as Big Mike, because of his massive size. He has natural athleticism, but can't excel in sports because of his hard life. Michael's mother is a drug addict who abandoned him, so he is forced to live on the streets. In comes Leigh-Anne, played by Sandra Bullock, who offers him support when no one else will. She tak...

The Tuesday Ten
LiLo in la-la land We all know Lindsey Lohan's not exactly in her best form these days — what with that raunchy magazine photo shoot for Muse, her on-again, off-again relationship with Samantha Ronson, and what about those alleged rumours of hooking up with How I Met Your Mother's Jason Segel? But true to form, when your career's on hold, what's there to do but engage in a bit of philantrophy… or at least what LiLo thought of as such. The manic celeb Twitterati allegedly tweeted about her mission to India to expose the plight of women and children who were victims of human trafficking. In fact, she tweeted 'Over 40 children saved so far...... Within one day's work...... This is what life is about..... Doing THIS is a life worth living!!! Oh, and I'm talking about being in India' Except that... By on 15th December 2009 07:40am

The Chipmunks have met their match
Alvin and the Chipmunks versus The Chipettes: the greatest musical battle has begun. But who will win? Alvin needs your help. Dave and his nephew Toby have sent him, Simon and Theodore back to school after hitting musical superstardom. With the singing skills and success, the school needs them to save their music program. All they have to do is win 1st place in a battle of the bands competition. Seems pretty simple, right? Wrong. Alvin and Chipmunks are up against an equally talented and driven band called The Chipettes. When Brittany, Eleanor and Jeanette square off against the boys, romantic and musical sparks are ignited with dazzling musical consequences. With the boys already feeling like a chipmunk out of water in a human school, do Alvin, Simon and Theodore have what it takes? By on 14th December 2009 10:09pm

Earlier today, somewhere in the North Pole…
While Santa's Reindeer and Elves were busily preparing for the big day... they started to argue over which of the two were the superior Santa's helper. Reindeer: "If it wasn't for us the sleigh would never leave the ground."
And this bickering continued on until they finally decided the only way to settle this would be a series of competitions. When news of this reached HabboDiscussion it spanided the staff much the same way it did in the North Pole. Until they decided to join in the competition and our two administrators
