Pienaar
A Pienaar - someone who has a magical power of persuasion that convinces those around him to willingly do all the work while he basks in the glory.
A Pienaar has an over-rated charm, that can sometimes be used for bad, but mostly is used for the good of his own ego and success. Being in a Pienaar's good graces, means a steady flow of fun and laughs. Dark side is yet to be detected, but a wicked sense of humour keeps those around him on edge and enthralled. A Pienaar has an uncanny ability to spot talent and attract the most pleasant of personalities (often refered to as "Lorys").
"I am over-worked and over-burdened, but he pulled a Pienaar and convinced me I have time to do his bidding. I do hope it's massively successful for him!"
Pienaar Persuasion - an unimaginable power to get anyone within sight to completely forget their own priorities and suddenly be convinced that another person's objectives are of paramount importance. This power includes the ability to win over even the most difficult of personalities; and an uncanny talent of being able to deliver bad news and still stay popular. This character trait is highly annoying to those immune to it (known as Lorys).
"Thank Goodness I was Lory'd before meeting with him, otherwise I would have fallen for Pienaar Persuasion and agreed to "project manage" XXXX initiative."

Striver
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.
