The Moths 

Share definition Flag
They feel similar to butterflies, but where butterflies are that soft fluttering feeling you get when you are excited or happy, The Moths are that sick stomach-flipping feeling you get when you are worried or are upset about something.

The happy fluttering and sick flopping feeling are actually very similar feeling reactions, just one is for a good reason and the other is for a bad. Therefore since moths are the ugly version of butterflies, they represent the ugly verson of the stomach flip-flopping.
When you see your significant other or the person you are interested in enter into the room, you get excited and feel butterflies in your stomach.

When you see your ex with someone else, you get sick and upset and feel The Moths in your stomach.

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
