Where is Michelle Obama? Former first lady surprises students visiting her daughter's school

In her post-White House life, Michelle Obama has made a habit lately of surprising people in entertaining ways.

The former first lady's shock-and-awe behavior continued this week, when Obama surprised students from Browning High School students during their visit to the Sidwell Friends School -- where Sasha Obama attends. A week-long cultural exchange program brought the Browning students to Washington, where they were doing a exchange centered around Native life back in their home state of Montana.

Obama was reportedly already on the prestigious school's Washington campus for a meeting with her daughter's counselor, when the head of school asked Michelle Obama if she would come meet the nine visiting students, to which she said yes.

"We were hurried out to the main campus house and there were secret service everywhere," Amy Andreas, Browning librarian and Human Rights Club adviser Amy Andreas said. "Then boom, in walks Michelle."

The students reportedly snapped some selfies with the former first lady, before the group sat around a table and listened to Obama discuss a world of privilege, and how to succeed despite a lack of resources.

"Mostly what I took away was to ask for things if you want them," senior Dylan RunningCrane said to the Great Falls Tribune. "Kids on the reservation are never taught that. If you want something, you have to ask."

The Browning High School visit to Washington also included tours of the city, a visit to the National Museum of the American Indian and a chat with Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) about Native issues.

"I fell in love with D.C.," senior Mariah Omeasoo said. "It was a definite culture shock because I've lived on the reservation my whole life. There were so many people and so many different languages. I loved how diverse and different people are there than in Montana and on the reservation."

Michelle Obama also recently surprised students at Washington D.C.'s Cardozo Education Campus, treating them to some face time on International Women's Day. Before that, she surprised people recording farewell messages to her on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, popping out from behind a curtain at their most emotional moments.
