Conversion Therapy 

Share definition Flag
Because nobody else actually gave a definition, opting instead to give their opinions, here's the definition I found on Wikipedia:
"Conversion therapy is the pseudoscientific practice of trying to change an individual's sexual orientation from homosexual or bisexual to heterosexual using psychological or spiritual interventions."
Conversion Therapy is indeed a form of brainwashing, but people should know the full definition, not just that it's bad.

Conversion Van 

Share definition Flag
A full-size van, usually with a completely re-done interior and some external modifications, all of which are done by a company who buys the van new and then re-sells the vehicle to consumers. These add-ons can include everything from blinds to a tv. They almost always have a fiberglass roof that is taller than stock, to make head room and add room for the tv. Many of these vans come stock with middle row seats that rotate, and a back seat that folds into a bed. There are many other great things about conversion vans too.
My friend has got a Honda Odyssey, which has a V6, a TV, lots of storage, and automatic doors. I have a Chevy G20 conversion van, which has a V8, is rear wheel drive, has a TV, even more storage, tons of leg room, and automatic doors are for sissies.

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
