Barack Obama's Surprise Visit To A Baseball Academy Had Students Properly Freaking Out
We. Miss. Obama.
It's been close to three years since we last had President Obama in the White House.
And it seems like we don't see him around much anymore, in these days when we could so desperately use a helping, guiding force.
So imagine the joy that the Washington Nationals Youth Academy kids experienced when they saw the 44th President show up to their program.
Yesterday, President @BarackObama visited #NatsAcademy to play games with our students & shop the farmer's market.… https://t.co/eFRegN7M3Z— Nationals Philanthropies (@Nationals Philanthropies) 1558620086
"It's Barack Obama!" one kid screamed in joy as he did laps around the crowd gathered around the former President, whom we all miss so terribly.
"I think everybody here—if you guys work hard, work hard in school, listen to your coaches—you guys are gonna do great things. So, I'm gonna be on the lookout for ya because I think you're gonna do something important. You guys are gonna make a real difference and we're gonna be really proud of you," Obama told the kids.

Barack Obama Just Posted The Cutest Throwback Photo To Celebrate Michelle's Birthday ❤️
Former First Lady Michelle Obama turned 55 today. The former President himself, Barack Obama, posted an adorable little throwback to celebrate his wife's birthday.
The pair were still serving couple goals decades ago.
I knew it way back then and I’m absolutely convinced of it today — you’re one of a kind, @MichelleObama. Happy Birt… https://t.co/VLwQtcydJm— Barack Obama (@Barack Obama) 1547737330
The caption reads...
"I knew it way back then and I'm absolutely convinced of it today — you're one of a kind, @MichelleObama. Happy Birthday!"
However, it takes hard work to serve up this kind of relationship. Michelle has spoken in the past about how the two have attended couples therapy to help each other find their happiness as a couple and improve their communication skills.
She explained to Oprah...
"Well, you go because you think the counselor is going to help you make your case against the other person. 'Would you tell him about himself?!' And lo and behold, counseling wasn't that at all. It was about me exploring my sense of happiness. What clicked in me was that I need support and I need some from him. But I needed to figure out how to build my life in a way that works for me."
People felt a lot of nostalgia for the pair.

Job hunting can be stressful and trying to fill a position can be equally as frustrating. So let's all work together shall we? When interviewing or applying for a job for the love of all that is holy, at least know your basics!
Make sure your contact info is on your resume. (I'm serious, it's a real issue) Don't oversell your abilities. Stick with your goals and your facts. The list is endless. You'd think resume building was never taught. Pay attention!
Redditor khlose wanted recruiters to help us out by asking... Recruiters of Reddit, what is the one instant turn-off that people still have on their resumes?
