Badass. Yup.

Everyone else should re-evaluate their swagger.. 

Hehehehe what the hell are you wearing

And I hate your hair

And you… ugh

1. IMC develops taste. Your taste develops after each presentation given by a classmate. Your taste develops after each presentation you yourself delivered. This is because success in IMC is largely dependent on good taste—which I loosely define, in the context of IMC, as knowing what works and communicating it with utmost refinement. 

2. IMC forces you to put order in your life. The reason why IMC students complain a lot is not because of all the work (because I’m sure all the courses have a lot of work too.) It is largely due to the fact that in IMC, you don’t have control over your own time. IMC is a course that requires you to be in tons of groups…and being in tons of groups requires tons of meetings. Simply put, without order, it is impossible to be a useful group mate (*cough* freeloaders *cough*), and have an existing social life.

3. In IMC, real learning does not happen inside the classroom.

I remember the first brand that was assigned to our group. We were required to visit 5 branches of Coffee Bean. My parents didn’t believe I was required to go to a mall… for school…for majors.

IMC requires a lot of fieldwork, interviews, surveys, spying, pakalan ng mukha with “connections.” It requires sacrificing free time to watch ads on youtube just so you don’t end up looking like an idiot when asked to analyze one on the spot. I’ve seen a lot of blockmates enter IMC as shy and reserved, and in less than one year, turn into great speakers and great conversationalists. All because IMC is far from conventional.

4. In IMC, no one is afraid to tell you you are wrong. Your self-esteem will crumble in the beginning… but you get used to it after a while. IMC teachers know how to tell the truth, even if it hurts. IMC teachers are the worst with giving grades..and they know this. I’ve never been so satisfied with a 2.25 before, because I knew that it was a 2.25 I deserved. Your groupmates also develop a peculiar sense of authority—of never settling, of never saying “okay na yan para tapos na,” which can be the most irritating thing but can also produce output you never imagined you could come up with.

5. IMC is the fun theory, turned into a course, set in hell.

Wrote this so people don’t get any wrong ideas on the reason for my shift of courses. I still love IMC :)

LEAVING THIS TUMBLR. I am most certain that this decision is impulsive hahahahahaha. Probably keeping it for reblogging. Bye.
