An organization is milpitas high school that leads students into believing that they will learn how to use flash, and windows movie maker if they join.
While this is true, students will not learn the "cool" stuff until their second and third year. What happens in the first year, you ask? Students learn how to use the basic microsoft office tools, while their friends, who didn't join DBA, take a digital art class, and learn the advanced things before the digital business kids do.
If you join the DBA, you will be with the same teachers up until your senior year, unless you take AP classes. However, the DBA cannot seem to keep a math teacher. It's like math teachers are to DBA as Defense against the dark arts teachers are to hogwarts. Not very consistent. The math teachers also tend to be new, and don't always have their lesson plan together right away. If you were to join the DBA, I would advise getting into a different math class, right away, unless the teacher has been there for a year already.
But what about the friends that you can gain by having up to four classes a day with them, You ask?
Well, while this may be well and good, in your second year, chances are you'll just be seperated from your friends anyway. You'll still have the same teacher (unless your friend leaves the DBA, or takes an AP class), but you might have him/her for fourth period, while your friend has the teacher for third.
In senior year, students leave their academy english class, and go to a different one. Up to half of the history class will be dumped into another one, and your basic computer class will be replaced by a digital art (FINALLY) class. Keep in mind that this is your senior year, and a lot of students join the DBA because they want to use photoshop, flash, or they just want to design. (in other words, if that's what you want, just take a digital art class sophomore year, and use the rest of high school to perfect your technique)
Besides academics, the DBA also features mentors, adults in the workforce who volunteer to spend time with the students and take them on college tours, or to their office. There are also activities, field trips, and college tours offered. In order to pay for this, there are cookie dough sales. This is where the academy makes the most money as far as fund raising goes. However, the cookie dough fund raising (as well as other fund raising activities at this school) are notorious for not deliviering goods or products, and causing refunds, and headache, as well as unhappy customers.
In short, join the DBA, only if you're willing to sit through a year of learning microsoft office, followed by more microsoft office until your senior year, where you'll be split up from your friends, and (FINALLY) tossed into a digital art class.

This isn't to say that the digital business academy is ALL bad though. Colleges apparentlly like it on your record, the MS office skills will help you if you work in a cubicle for the rest of your life, and mentors can provide a very interesting experience. Plus, having the same teachers for three years can be rewarding...somehow...

Californication means when Western civilization has an effect on another state (or country). This isn't only limited to California. They mean all WESTERN states. Besides, all the smart Californians know that this state isn't just a beach, or one city (Hollywood)

Feeling of sadness or depression, usually felt in the teen years. The whole depression thing isn't really helped by the fact that almost all rock music (the music most angsty people I know listen to,) is aout NOTHING BUT being depressed, or contemplating suicide. But a lot of angsty teens listen anyway, because they think that they can relate to super rich adult celebrities.
Music: Suffocation, no breathing, don't give a f*ck if I cut my arms bleeding...
Angsty teen: Oh Papa Roach...you know how I feel...
Papa roach: *enjoying a giant swimming pool at a resort somewhere*

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
I say this is some grade A bullshit.
A biter is, as you've already read in the other definitions, someone who can't formulate any of their own good ideas, so they steal ideas from those around them, because they are uncreative hacks.

Person A, who worked hard on his computer project, was seen as a biter, because, although he had used his own ideas, Person B, the real biter, had shown his project first, and was seen by the rest of the world as an original thinker (even though he never made improvements to his project, ever again, while person A continued to expand with creative ideas, which paid off later in life)

In the California, San Francisco, and San Jose Bay Area, this was a great alternative rock radio station. It always played music. No talk; just music, and the DJ's were amazing.
Now, however, it is gone, and has since been replaced by "la romantica," a Spanish station featuring romantic songs in Spanish.

It's such a shame that great stations such as channel 104.9 are being replaced with radio stations that few can really understand (and those who can will usually be seen listening to something else)

A song by Green Day. It was great at first, but was overplayed by alternative rock stations, and was raped of its musical...goodness. To all the people that said this was Green Day's best song, I really hope you have heard some of their other songs....I have, and I can tell you right now, that this is definately not their best song (in my opinion, anyway)...this is how radio ruins great music....
