Your passphrase reduces to the password Mfcwa1MC. Is Mfcwa1MC easier to crack than a random 8 character password? Even if the attacker "half-cracked" your passphrase and knew its initials, there's still more work to do.
Making an intelligent phrase will affect the distribution of initials, but even something commonplace like "the quick brown zebra jumped over the mooon" or tqbzjotm hits the less frequent letters like q and z. It won't be completely random, but it's going to cover way more of the 8 letter space than words are.
