New Year's Eve 2010

Posted Tue, 01/19/2010 - 22:34 by administrator
We hope that you had a nice transition into twentyten and that the coming year will fulfil your most optimistic expectations! Many of us celebrated New Year’s Eve in College 3 this year. The buffet featured plenty of tasty cold and warm dishes, but the guests probably got most out of dinner through Bleigießen (lead pouring), a German tradition used to predict the most significant events in one’s next year. Desert featuring ice cream bombs were consumed prior to the opening of the bar where each guest interested was instructed on how to mix and poor a long drink. Karaoke stepped up the rhythm of the night, featuring African, Nepalese, and Indian songs, but also classics like Dancing Queen, Lemon Tree, With a little help from my friends, Sweet Home Alabama, Billy Jean, Parklife, and many many more. The New Year was welcomed with champaign, fireworks and dancing.

Unfortunately, our photographer had temporarily misplaced his camera, so the later part of the evening is not well documented …

C3 Recognition Dinner

Posted Wed, 12/16/2009 - 11:07 by administrator
On Sunday, December 6th, the atmosphere in the College 3 servery was much different than on any other day. Dimmed lights, three long tables, lightened candles, lots of decoration, green champagne and delicious, extraordinary dishes.

Traditionally, for the past 3 years, College 3 has organized their Recognition Dinner, a celebration for the end of the semester. During the event, all students who have contributed in organizing events for social integration or have been given prizes for certain achievements are honorably mentioned by the College Masters.

This year, special thanks went to the cheerleading team for an extraordinary performance that has not been seen in the history of Olympix in this university. Moreover, appreciation was shown to Hozefa Indorewala and Hendrik Meerkamp for commitment in organizing the Fall Games and Lisa Ritschel and Eva Tzokova for the Unicef Children's Day celebration. Special thanks went to also to Ivana Mateska and Trevor Walker, responsible for the weekly International Music Dinners, Abhinandan Shrestha, hosting the International Movie Nights as well as Vasile Apostu in charge of screening cool movies. The celebration could not be closed without mentioning Lidet Tadesse, who has been honored with DAAD scholarship for foreign students studying at German universities for their excellent academic performance and significant social and intercultural commitment.

The event would not have been possible without the contribution from the College Masters (Götz Pfander and Tijana Janjic-Pfander) the College Office Manager (Robert Rennie) the Resident Associates (Autun Purser and Rhianon Williams, Hany Elgala and Riham Galal, Tonia Ruppenthal and Michel Owonibi) and the College 3 Office Team Members.

Posted Tue, 12/08/2009 - 20:28 by administrator

On the 21st of November College 3 hosted the Universal Children’s Day celebration, organized by the UNICEF club on campus. Kids from many kindergartens in Bremen, as well as their parents, came to paint, play, dance, and eat cake. All guests of the event listened to the inspiring speech and songs of Magnet Man, an international dancehall star from Barbados, who was the special guest of the event. All kids received autographs and special posters from Magnet Man, and participated in the different creative workshops.

UNICEF club is very happy to announce that €400 was gathered from this event and from the charity reggae concert on the previous day. The funds from these two events were donated to UNICEF's campaign Schools for Africa, which aims to build schools for 4 million children in Africa.

Halloween 2009- so fantastically good, it was *scary*. Hah- bad pun intended.

Posted Tue, 11/03/2009 - 12:14 by administrator
This year's Halloween party in H3 delivered on all fronts- the decorations were superb (thanks to the the near-superhuman and life-threatening efforts put in by the College 3 team), the entertainment was both unique AND astoundingly good (thanks to Tobi for DJ'ing and the band Wasted, brought to you by Harri Geiger), the mosh pits brutal (thanks to your friendly local security man Simon) the drinks capable of inebriating even the heaviest drinkers (you get the idea by now- excellent job bar staff), but the real star of the evening was the audience. Never before have I personally seen a party with a costume requirement turn out such excellent get-ups, ranging from the hilarious to the scandalously, er, sexy, to the pure cool.....and yes, I am referring to a particular set of men. Who happened to be wearing black. It seemed like everywhere you turned there was another creative costume ready to double you over into tears of laughter or cause your jaw to scrape the floor for sheer ballsiness, and though perhaps they might have been a few more pirates than usual floating around, they more than made up for it by being damn good pirates.
Whether or not you normally celebrate Halloween, I can only hope that you decided to this year- otherwise, you missed out on what may very well be one of the best parties of the year- and that would be downright terrifying. (Sean)
