Professual 

Share definition Flag
A cross between professional and casual. Can be used in the context of fashion, meetings, events and dialogue.
Fashion Women - A skort and some type of blouse is a professual outfit

Fashion Men - Jeans and a Blazer

Meetings - when meeting your colleagues for dinner after work, you need to maintain a level of 'professualism'. You cannot be too casual because you have to work with them, but you don't have to be professional about everything.

Dialogue - when talking to authority or colleagues about a social event that work is hosting, a phrase such as "What are you gonna wear?" is preferable to "What are you going to wear?" In the context of email between colleagues; signing off with "Take it Easy" v.s. "Best regards" or "Later man" v.s. "Sincerely" can be considered 'Professual'

Events - Professual Friday instead of Casual Friday, because no one actually knows what is acceptable on casual Friday's but when it is 'Professual Friday', the individual knows that there has to be an element of professionalism in your outfit.

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
