Washington: Being president of the United States is not all drone strikes and crisis meetings. Occasionally you get to have a bit of fun. A video released today shows Barack Obama doing just that, posing in front of the mirror with aviator sunglasses, playing around with a selfie stick and struggling to enunciate "February."

In a skit recorded by BuzzFeed called "things everyone does but doesn't talk about," Obama can also be seen blaming himself for making cookies too big to dunk in a glass of milk -- "thanks Obama" -- and drawing a picture of his wife Michelle.
