Coeur d'Alene 

Share definition Flag
Coeur d'Alene (pronounced /ˌkɔr dəˈlein/) is the largest city of Kootenai County, Idaho, United States. The city is located about 25 miles east of Spokane, Washington.

The current population of approximately 50,000 is growing at a feverish pace due to the local arts and tourism. Key points of interest are the Coeur d'Alene Resort (which has the longest in-land floating boardwalk), Lake Coeur d'Alene, the Festival of Lights parade, and the Car d'Lane Classic Car parade and show.

The town is nestled in a valley, surrounded by mountains on all sides. It is bordered to the north by Hayden and Dalton Gardens, and Post Falls to the west. To the south, there is Lake Coeur d'Alene, which includes a public beach and waterfront area, as well as a private beach at the bordering North Idaho College.

coeur d'alene building department

Share definition Flag
A lot like big-city building department, but way more restrictive and difficult. Getting a permit through the building department is harder than going to Wal-Mart and not picking up any junk food. The time it takes to get plans through the building department is slower than a herd of turtles stampeding through peanut butter.
I went to the Coeur d'Alene building department this morning, and then I decided to improve my day by plucking my eyeballs out.

Coeur d'Alene Charter Academy 

Share definition Flag
A public school for the insanely smart/nerdy (but not afraid to show it), awesome - sauce students in North Idaho. Generally considered the best school in the world. Students attending can expect approx. 13 hours of homework per night. However, it will all pay off when you get to join the gigantic Charter chess club or Academic Team (which has progressed to nationals, three years in a row).
Stupid kids (who are forced to attend other North Idaho schools cuz they just generally suck at life), look in jealousy at Charter as its shining, godly students ascend to Penn State and MIT.
Suck it bitches.
Wow. That kid is pretty damn smart...he must go to Coeur d'Alene Charter Academy...

Striver 

Share definition Flag
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
