alto saxaphone 

Share definition Flag
One of several instruments in the saxaphone family. The saxaphone is often confused with the saxophone, a wind instrument invented by Adolphe Sax in 1840. Saxaphone is a word used by uneducated simpletons that need to spend more time near a dictionary and less time trying to associate themselves with the many facets of coolness offered by the saxophone and legitimate saxophone players world-wide.
For sale: one used saxaphone. I'm not sure if it's a tenor or alto, I'm not a musician.

Alto Saxophone

A good instrument to play, not to big, not to small either. The neck strap can become somewhat annoying at points. Overall it's a good saxophone to play and it makes a great tone. When played with others it can have a great melody and harmony, overall it is a good instrument for a band and people think their instruments are better than you but it's all lies. The Alto Saxophone will always be the best instrument!! :)
Damn, look at her Alto Saxophone! I bet it has a great tone!

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
