Cupertino Alliance

The best micronational organization does more and more active than the Grand Unified Micronational.
It is sort of funny how there's a growing view that the Grand Unified Micronational is unprofessional, and now all Grand Unified Micronational candidates suddenly want to hold talks with the Cupertino Alliance.

cupertino high school

Share definition Flag
Referred to as Tino. Rivals are Monta Vista High School and Lynbrook. Not rated as high as the other 2 academically, but is definitely better all-around. They play MV every year in the helmet game to determine the shittier football team. Has somewhat lower concentration of asians, less competitive and sheltered, and more diverse in that it has more non-asian people than MV and lynbrook. Kids still live for grades and snakes will backstab you to get into a better college.

Fed from 2 middle schools, Lawson(Cupertino) and Hyde(SJ/Santa Clara), both very different. Football is dominated by Hyde kids while the hard AP classes are dominated by Lawson kids. Walk into a AP Calc BC or AP Physics class, and you can count the number of white/hispanic kids w/ 1 finger.

Types of people:
1) Smart, nerdy kids who study and get mostly A's and generally do STEM
2) Few insane geniuses who've been coding since 2nd grade and make things that are supposed to solve cancer and you know they're going to Stanford
3) Asian posers who go around like they're fuckbois and hot shit, but are actually soft af
4) Dumb football players and stoners and the ratchet/thotty girls
5) Fobby ELD kids who can barely speak English
6) The rest (very few left)

It's got the most happening around it, being 2 blocks away from the new Apple HQ and Main St is the hangout spot. Most kids have nothing better to do than study, play video games, get boba, and smoke weed and go to Donut Wheel.
Cupertino high school kid 1: What are you doing this weekend bro?
Tino kid 2: Nothing much, just have to study for my 5 AP classes and play LoL with my friend. You?
Kid 1: That's lit. We might to go to Portal Park to smoke up then hit Donut Wheel.

Kid 2: Do you think joining Key Club will help me get into Stanford?
Kid 1: Only if you get President bro. But you are only taking 5 APs, you need at least 7 more if you want a chance...

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
