You have my heart and we'll never be worlds apart † Maybe in magazines But you'll still be my star, thats when you'll need me there, with you i'll always share...because † When the sun shines, we''ll shine together, told you I'll be here forever Said I'll always be a friend, took an oath, I'ma stick it out till the end † Now that it's raining more than ever, know that we'll still have each other † You can stand under my umbrella, under my umbrella.
These fancy things, will never come in between, you're part of my entity, here for infinity † When the war has took it's part, when the world has dealt it's cards † If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart † Because When the sun shines, we'll shine together † Told you I'll be here forever † Said I'll always be a friend † Took an oath, I'm a stick it out till the end † Now that it's raining more than ever, know that we'll still have each other † Under my umbrella.
It's raining † So go on and let the rain pour I'll be all you need and more † You can always come here to me † Under my umbrella.

anger doesn't look good on me.

Early on in life, Michelle stood out among the crowd."As far back as any of us can remember, she was very bright," Craig Robinson told Newsweek.Michelle skipped second grade and eventually joined a gifted sixth-grade class at Bouchet Elementary School, where she graduated as class salutatorian. Then she went on to Kennedy King College, where Michelle took two years of special biology classes. Classwork included studying photosynthesis, working in a laboratory and identifying the muscles of dissected rat specimens, recalled childhood friend Chiaka Davis Patterson."This is not what normal seventh-graders were getting," Patterson told the Chicago Sun-Times.Michelle was part of a handpicked group of students selected for the well-known Whitney Young High School in Chicago, just three years after it opened in 1975. At Whitney Young, Michelle made the honor roll all four years, took advanced placement classes, and was in the National Honor Society. She was also the student council treasurer and a member of the fundraising publicity committee.Michelle continued to stand out -- and not just because she was among the tallest girls in her class at 5 feet 11 inches, said classmate Norm Collins.She seemed to conquer everything "effortlessly," he told Newsweek.On the surface, Michelle seemed to excel easily, but she was a hard worker, her brother said.This habit continued throughout her education, allowing her to excel at Princeton, where she majored in sociology and graduated cum laude in 1985. "She was not a procrastinator," Angela Acree, Michelle's roommate, told the Chicago Sun-Times. "Michelle would always get her work done in advance so she was not sitting there facing some deadline the next day."

In 1991, Michelle worked as an assistant in the chief of staff's office of Chicago Mayor Richard Daley. She continued to spread her positive and notable reputation in her actions and methods of communication."I've been in so many settings or meetings with Michelle where people are talking all around an issue, and she has a way of succinctly getting to the issue and putting it on the table. She's willing to say what other people dance around," Valerie Jarrett, the mayor's deputy chief of staff at the time, told the Chicago Sun-Times.In 1993, Michelle grabbed an offer to be part of then-President Bill Clinton's AmeriCorps effort as the founding executive director of the Chicago office of Public Allies. In the position, she created an office and a board of directors, and raised money to help young people enter public service.Michelle created a template for 11 other offices and left a one-year reserve of money, which none of the other sites since has had, Paul Schmitz, national Public Allies CEO, told the Chicago Sun-Times.By 1996, the University of Chicago offered her a job as associate dean of students that extended Michelle's work with volunteerism. As director of the University Community Service Center, she located and supported the volunteer work of students.

In 2002, then-University of Chicago Hospitals President Michael Riordan offered Michelle a job as the hospital's executive director of community affairs, serving as liaison between the institution and its surrounding community of rich and poor.Michelle was promoted in 2005 to vice president of external affairs and community relations, while her husband was sworn in as a U.S. senator.By then, among other things, Michelle had expanded a two-person part-time office to a staff of 17, grown the number of volunteers at the hospital from 200 to nearly 1,000, and quadrupled the number of hospital employees who volunteered outside the hospital to 800, officials told the Chicago Sun-Times.After Barack announced his presidential bid, Michelle reduced her professional responsibilities to support her husband.She now juggles the demands of the campaign, motherhood and her marriage. Her top priority, however, is her two daughters."Her commitment is to be away overnight only once a week -- to campaign only two days a week and be home by the end of the second day," explained Mayor Bill Bogaard to the Pasadena Weekly, after Michelle made a private speech.Whatever happens, Michelle will find a way to make it all work, said Craig Robinson."There's nothing too hard for her to do," he told the Chicago Sun-Times.
