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:

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
