Striver

The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.

Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh

purple sprite

refers to sprite that has been mixed with liq. hydrocodone or codine perscription cough syrup. Taken in quantity these syrups cause users nerves to shut down, including optical. Although the buzz is cleaner then alcohol, it will amplify the effects. Popular around the huston area and its hard to find a atl-ian not totin some of that purple shit. Whatever made this dumb fucker think a purple sprite is some kinda goody bag is beyond me. So tip me a thumbs up and keep sippin that sis-urp.

sprite

1) A delectable lemon-lime beverage best served cold and fizzy, and possibly with lemonade or alcohol, or both. It has possibly the shortest half-life of any soda, as it goes flat within minutes.

2) The name of a song produced by the techno band freezepop.

3) A nigh-archaic medium of digital imagery composed of pixels, with a notable feature of pixels visible to the naked human eye, now only used in games on the Game Boy Advance. A very popular medium for webcomic authors not confident in their ability to draw. Two highly popular examples are Bob and George and 8-Bit Theatre (bobandgeorge.com and nuklearpower.com, respectively). Used in context as a verb, it is used to mean both customizing/altering an existing sprite to meet story needs in a webcomic and creating a new sprite image.

4) A small faerie that glows brightly. Usually female with 6 transparent wings. Should have no special powers.

1) Yesterday I had some Sprite mixed into an Arnold Palmer. Damn, that was surprisingly good.

2) "What makes the melonball bounce?" "So you've heard 'Sprite' too, eh?"

3) David Anez is a popular sprite comic author. His spriting ability is not the greatest, but he was the first out there.

4) Faeries can be ethereal, much like the Night Elf Wisps of Warcraft 3, or corporeal, much like the sprites in the animated movie Fern Gully.
