New Burnside 

Share definition Flag
A little town, well a village, in the fucked up state of Illinois. It is very small

HISTORY-named after some general, Ambrose Burnside i think, that fought in the Civil War.

WHATS THERE?-It is very boring there and has no jobs or anything important to really offer.

WHAT TO DO?-If you are kinda yound, then you should check out the old school. It's a lot of fun if you like to get in trouble. Theres also the cemetary, if you believe in supernatural stuff, like most do in the village, then you can play with Taro Cards there or with an Ouija Board.

WHOS THERE?- That is a damn good question. Whos there? Well, practically no one. Everyone is family with everyone. And they like to keep to themselves. So there arn't very many people to socialize with.
History- New Burnside used to be waaay more popular considering that it was named after a Civil War general, but I don't know what happened. Now we have less than 300 residents....

Whats there- Houses. A few churches. A boring park. A bike trail. A post office. A cemetary. An old broken school. ect.

What to do- Basically, you need imagination and courage in order to have fun. So either be really young and immiture or get ready to run for your life when you trespass.

Whos there- no one...just a reminder

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
