Sunday the 5th featured yet another early C3 social event with the first ever occurrence of the Games Night. The somewhat spontaneous but ultimately successful affair came to a close with some winners taking the gold more deservedly than others, at least in this writer’s opinion. The crowd-favourite, super-talented duo, Louisa and Joerg had the title of Pool Champions indirectly snagged from them when the conniving Michael and Eggy knocked them out cheaply in the quarter-final round. Karma flexed her manly biceps shortly after however, and the snide pair faced defeat against tournament runners-up, Radu and Victor. The final winners, Silviu and Jose racked up a string of great performances throughout the tournament though, and took the gold from the Romanian team.

"Party till the cops come knocking" a phrase used in many hip hop tracks was realized this Thursday the 26th of August during the annual C3 social night =) This was a chance for our freshmen to mingle with each other and other members of the college. Between the fantastic games, the lively music, the choice sources of hydration and happy people, we had the recipe for an awesome party! People talking, dancing, enjoying the delicious C3 shots, blindfolded footballers… this was how the common room looked like. Well, the energy and the beats from our monster of a music system overflowed into the neighboring homes declaring our arrival…. and landing us into trouble. The cops did leave after we lowered the volume no doubt restraining themselves from dropping a move to the very music they were sent to control [Yeah it was that good!] The party ended late with everyone knowing something more about their new neighbors. Who said learning isn’t fun?

On May 29th the 55th annual Eurovision Song Contest took place in Oslo, Norway. College 3 was prepared as always for showing popular events. The Multimedia room was full of both European and non-european students cheering and supporting their favorite song.

After listening to all 25 finalists we made an internal voting. Each person was given the right to vote for two songs (giving 1 or 2 points). Voting for the song of your own country was not allowed. The results: "Surprise, surprise!",... our favorite song turn out to be the real winner. After a night of high drama and a stage invasion, Germany won the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest. Go Lena!!!

Friday, May 7, saw the 1st Annual Jacobs Short Film Festival in College 3! Complete with red carpet, paparazzi, glamourous ladies, champagne and of course great movies, the audience was treated to short films ranging from thrillers and horrors to animated films and music videos. Free ice cream was also offered during the interval to add to the authentic cinema atmosphere as the Multimedia Room was packed to the rafters with people wanting to know who would win the Golden Dragons and the much-coveted Audience Award.

In the Fiction category, 3rd Prize was shared between Prabhakar Segmi and Mariana Martinez Robles, 2nd Prize awarded to Ioana Serban whilst Arijana Rubin-Hodzic was the judges' choice as winner and recipient of the Golden Dragon. In the Non-Fiction category, 2nd place went to Autun Purser and the Golden Dragon and 1st Prize was taken home by Darko Makreshanski. Ioana Serban also won the Audience award, voted for by everyone present at the ceremony.

A movie-themed party was then held in the Other Side - a great night was had by all and we are already looking forward to next year's ceremony!
