CalHATERS 

The widely preferred almost-acronym for the California Automated Travel Expense Reimbursement System (CalATERS) because state employees HATE it due to the sheer difficulty people have navigating its website which everyone assumes is entirely intentionally built into the process to prevent reimbursement.
I spent almost the entire day trying to figure out how to use the CalHATERS website until I began to hallucinate that a giant panda was destroying everything on my desk and so once I began to realize that it may be virtually impossible to get reimbursed, I just gave up on it and acknowledged that the money I’d spent on my licensure and all of the expenses I had related to travel for the whole year was just down the drain!

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
