Like him or hate him, President Obama is a pretty cool guy. Whether you are a conservative, a liberal or a independent, let's just take a moment to flash back on some of Obama's coolest moments as President.

1. Obama's famous outros at the White House Correspondent's dinner

Every year the White House Correspondent's dinner takes place to celebrate the cooperation between journalists and the government in promoting transparency in government. Obama, being the cool cat that he is, ends his speech by dropping the mic and saying, "Obama out!"

2. Obama responding to critics of his administration's ISIS policy

3. Obama had some jokes for the sitting speaker of the house John Boehner. It's just a joke, their bromance is well documented.


4. In this image, a 5-year old black boy asks Obama: "I want to know if my hair is just like yours." President Obama's responded affectionately, "Why don’t you touch it and see for yourself?”


5. In 2015, BuzzFeed convinced Obama to come on to do a skit that promoted his new HealthCare website.His Presidency is the first viral presidency after all.


6. On one night close to Halloween, a staffer's kid got into the President's office. What did Obama decide to do? Play with the staffer's son. Unfortunately for Obama, he got caught in Spider-man's web!


7. Last Summer, Obama spoke and sang Amazing Grace during the eulogy of the Reverend Clementa Pinckney who was killed in the Charleston Shooting last Summer.

8. In 2008, that moment where he referenced Jay Z's song "Dirt of your Shoulder."

9. That moment when President Obama announced the death of Osama Bin Laden and did the most amazing swag walk you've ever seen.


10. That moment in 2015 where he went on Jimmy Fallon's show to do a hilarious segment where he read out loud some of the numerous mean tweets. Indeed, he is no stranger to talk show appearances.


11. That moment Obama put Trump on blast by dropping some bars...oh wait, that was an Obama impersonator? Well, close enough!

Honestly, Obama is a cool dude. It's pretty hard to catch all his moments of coolness, but one thing is for sure, he definitely has to be one of the coolest presidents to ever sit in the White House. And what is Obama going to do after the presidency? Well, he actually has an answer to that:

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
