The small area of Annapolis, where West St., Calvert St., and Cathedral St. converge. In this small, but locally well known, location is the Department of Human Resources, where welfare recipients come to collect their checks. It can be quite the eyesore in the mornings to see all of the poor blacks of Annapolis loitering in their poor fitting clothes, doing absolutely nothing constructive.

It is quite ironic that such an area of Annapolis exists, considering that some of the richest people in the US live there, and the cost of living is so high that the people that plague this area probably aren't doing too well.
"You walked into town on West St.?? I hope you didn't walk through Spanish Harlem... It's difficult to make it up here without being confronted by crack whores trying to scrounge up some dough for more shit."

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
