Here is what Laura had to share when we had our interview.
♥♥♥♥♥♥
What made you decide to join Habbox?
I signed up in 2009 because I played Habbo with an IRL friend (also called Laura!) who discovered Habbox radio through one of her friends on the hotel! I then got bored a year later and started listening again in summer 2010, then I won a Win A Room competition and joined properly!

What are your current role(s) at Habbox, and what is one of your memorable moments from working in one of those roles (or previous roles)?
I am currently General Manager (Site) and I have pretty much held every other role at Habbox during my time. I think some of the most memorable things are the bits I worked REALLY HARD ON and was proud of, or just good fun events where everyone is just having a good time and is being (mostly) nice. I also remember a lot of really horrible moments which is not fun 🙁
♥♥♥♥♥♥
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
What’s free time? lol… I do try to take a *bit* of time to myself but I’m usually just watching trash TV and sitting on Reddit to try and switch off. I like playing games but mostly multiplayer ones, and I live alone so I don’t get to do that any more 🙁
♥♥♥♥♥♥
How do you handle criticism?
Badly. Especially when it’s not constructive, and it’s just people saying negative things for the sake of it. I get upset very easily and take things very personally. I’m working on it 😛
♥♥♥♥♥♥
What movie can you watch over and over again?
High School Musical series.
♥♥♥♥♥♥
If you had one day left to live on the Earth, what would you do?
Spend it with my family, nothing very huge or special but a nice meal, see the dog, say goodbye etc.
♥♥♥♥♥♥
What’s your current favourite song and why?
A Casual Affair – Panic at the Disco. Only just rediscovered this song and it’s got a really interesting melody.
♥♥♥♥♥♥
Where do you see yourself in the next five years?
Honestly, pretty much no different to where I am now. Hopefully at a more senior job IRL, and I kiiinda doubt I’ll still be at Habbox but who knows. I don’t see anything changing in my ‘personal’ life haha.
♥♥♥♥♥♥
What motivates you to work hard?
I’ve always been a workaholic. If I keep working then I can distract myself from negative things 😛 Most of my self esteem is based on being productive working, so I end up getting down if I’m *not* working. It’s weird..
♥♥♥♥♥♥
What is your proudest accomplishment?
On Habbox – I think probably launching Version 8 of the site last year, because it had been a long time since it was first designed, and I did most of it all myself (from design to coding).
IRL – I honestly don’t know!! I got nominated for a journalism award once, maybe that?
