The magnificent beam of light that is Michelle Obama brought her enviable brainz to Eastern Kentucky University this past weekend to deliver the 2013 commencement address, and as usual, the First Lady DOMINATED.

Cue to 5:05 and watch Mrs. Obama's inspiring speech (above)!

As is her custom, Michelle's address is peppered with personal examples as a means to strengthen her arguments: arguments of perseverance, community, creativity, compassion and hope.

Oh it makes us feel like we're graduating all over again, sniff!
