International Baccalaureate

A secondary school program seeking to create well-rounded and socially concious graduates. The Middle Years Program (MYP) precedes the Diploma Program (DP), with MYP encompassing the first two years of high school and DP consisting of the last two. IB boasts rigorous classes, community service requirements (CAS), a required 4000 word essay, a Theory of Knowledge (TOK) class, and exit exams which determine whether or not a student earns their IB diploma. Most students maintain a love/hate relationship with the program, both realizing that they are getting a great education and hating the immense workload and high stress environment. The students are somewhat isolated within the school, leading to the development of a unique culture. Stress or work levels are often used as bragging materials, with the most overworked or stressed individual recieving admiration from their peers. There is no mold that all IB students fit, but overachievers are the most common. However, all share the belief that Advanced Placement (AP) classes are for slackers or those who are less intelligent.

Internet Whiteout

The state you reach during web surfing when anything you look at becomes bland and just like everything else you've looked at. Even music playing in the background gets tuned out.
"man i was so bored all i did was read comics online, eventually it all turned into an internet whiteout"

"I watched so many funny cat video's today they all started to mix together in my mind"

International Beer Day

An excuse for people who like holiday and drinking to have a drunken day off in the holiday-less month of August. People internationally gather to drink beer (not necessarily international beer) on August 5th and practice the art of Beer it Forward.
My favorite holiday is International Beer Day, because it involves more beer and less ugly sweaters than Christmas.

internet baggage

The search results that are found when looking up someone's name. Internet baggage can be good if the information that is pulled up by your name documents achievements, education, work or news clipping which contain your name. Internet baggage can be bad however if the information pulled up by your name points at low points in your life such as mention of your divorce etc.
"Dang, I looked that guy up on google and he has soooo much internet baggage. He must be old!"

"Wow, I pulled up her internet baggage and learned so much about everything she has accomplished."

"I googled your name and didn't find any internet baggage. You're a clean slate, tell me more about yourself."

"Man all that internet baggage burst my bubble!"

"I found out we have so much in common through (his/her) internet baggage."
