Herman the German 

Share definition Flag
A harmless old fella, who bides his time by pottering along on his bike in a travelleresque manner. He is often seen in the town of Consett and nearby areas, riding along the road, with his telltale sign of indicating by flailing his arms about. But most of all, he can be recognized by his unique hat with a tufted duck feather pointing out the top.

All the information gathered about Herman is from rare encounters he has with the public. From public knowledge and my own experience, he spent some time in Munich before arriving to England by ship. He can be most commonly seen on the Derwent walk as he routinely rides along the eoute.

Alas, with many hero stories they have their sceptics. A rumor has arised that he isn't German but was infact born in Shotley Hospital.
I've just had to give Herman the German some change because he was trapped in Aldi.

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
