Depite the somewhat lame title given to this program, its one of the coolest teams u can get onto.
Not all schools offer it... but it IS world wide. And is the only competion i know of that teaches children how to build 3 ft tall building w/ kitchenware and feel confident - when wearing pink bunny tutus with little ballet shoes while skipping about and singing offkey with a geman accent... YES ITS ABOUT CREATIVITY.
Once u r a member of the 7person team,
basically what u do is stay after school a LOT (sometimes everyday until 6 when getting close to regionals):
practice instant challenges (tasks u and ur team members have to complete, usually with a 1-5 min. planning period and 1-5 min performing period. tasks often involve creating commercials, not talking, building structeres out of straws, mailinglabels, toothpicks and what not and the like)
work on ur central challenge (there are 4 u can pick from, all containing building and performing aspects. u and ur team have to solve the challenge w/in an 8 minute skit. there are usually a LOT of requirements. butits fun. plus, costumes and set pieces are made for this.
THEN, u and ur team go to the regional competition and show ur stuff to a panel of judges. And so does every other team in the area. And every1 is uber nice 2 eachother so u don't get points deducted for unsportsmanshipness.
THEN, the 2 winners fore each challenge, grade level go to STATEs.
THEN u rehearse for another month and perform at statelevel.
THEN 2 teams for each challenge, grade level get to go to globals, in nashville tennessee (u get out of school 4 it!)
everyone else goes home sobbing.
And throughout the whole process, several things occur:
1. u learn more about the 6 other people on ur team than is healthy.
2.u eat. a lot. and pretty much only stuff with high levels of sugar and caffine.
3. u laugh in 2 hours more than the average adult does in a day.
4.u feel very loved... b/c u r!
Warning, though. As a general rule, guys (and gals) who do DI are usually considered kinda ... weird, outthere by their more ... ignorant peers. like we care.

Get the Destionation Imagination mug.A number which all mathematicians can agree does not exist in math, but one which we put into equations just for the sake of argument and because it is so much fun.
"The solution to this equation is an imaginary number."
"So there is no solution?"
"Well, no, but I found it anyway."

Get the imaginary number mug.Related Words
An annoying ass electropop "rock" band that are called alternative rock even though they're not even close to being alternative. Linkin Park, Avril Lavigne, Fall Out Boy, OneRepublic, Train, Green Day, Panic! At The Disco, and Blink 182 are alternative rock because they use guitars in their music used to create modern rock. Imagine Dragons lack this. They're often loved by normies who don't know a goddamn thing about rock music but pretend to act like they do. In other words: generic ass boring late 2010's pop "music". See Maroon 5, Taylor Swift, Charlie Puth, Demi Lovato.
Normie: Imagine Dragons is the best alternative rock band of all time, imo.
Rocker/rock fan (me): No, they are not.
Normie: Why?
Rock fan: Because they don't have the guitars required to create modern rock. Avril Lavigne, Fall Out Boy, Train, and OneRepublic are alternative pop rock. Imagine Dragons are crappy pop "rock"
Normie: You only call it pop because it's popular, idiot.
Rock fan: No, I don't! Imagine Dragons don't even use guitars that much so they can't be referred to as rock. They're electropop. They're even in Teen Titans Go!
Normie: The correct term is "alternative rock"
Rock fan: No, it isn't. You just listen to any garbage on the "hard rock" radio stations and assume everything they say is true. It's not alternative.
Normie: Ok, whatever man, this conversation is over. Now go and listen to your emo rock.
Rock fan: Avril Lavigne is not emo you bastard!!!

Get the Imaginary Boyfriend mug.A meaningless term used to legitimize the Global London course at the University of Notre Dame London study abroad program. Concepts associated with the sociological imagination include: challenging the obvious, making gross stereotypes about an entire population based on one person's experience, relinquishing any concept of personal free will because all thoughts and actions are obviously determined by societal pressures, white guilt for oppressing the minorities and not being socially welcoming, and an intense love for immigrants.
Today in seminar, I used my sociological imagination to examine the contested history of African migration to London.
