Steppin' into the light 

To make your presence known. To announce your arrival or dominating the scene.
When J-Byrd gets to a party, he likes steppin' into the light, so everyone knows he's on top of the scene.

As Jason stepped into the light, the party fell silent, all eyes were on this player.

Walk into the light 

Drop dead, die, cease to live. Used in a derogatory way directed at someone you don't like.
You're such a douche bag, why don't you just walk into the light already!

Dipped into the light 

Dipped into the light means that you have either smoked, snorted, and or injected methamphetamine.
Yeah my friend Adam over here just dipped into the light a couple days ago. Response. “Oooohhh reallyyyy???”

Lightino 

A very fair skinned Latino that could pass for a gringo.
Ines tries to pass for gringo whenever she goes to the country club, but we all know she's a Lightino.

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

SkyPesos 

Delta SkyMiles, also known as SkyPesos, is the frequent flyer program of Delta Airlines. It has a very poor value and hard to use.
- I'm trying to book an award flight to Paris, but I only have 70,000 SkyPesos
- Just forget about it, you don't have enough SkyPesos to fly anywhere.
