KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) - One of the Kalamazoo Central students -- who was seated behind keynote speaker President Barack Obama during Monday night's commencement ceremony -- fell asleep.

The student, who earned such a prime seat by singing in the choir, was captured on video due to his proximity to the president. He also was a hot topic on Twitter and the subject of several recently created Facebook pages.

Our video, at left, shows the student yawning and fighting to stay alert. At one point, he leans back, only to jump alert and join in during applause. The student then leans forward and appears to nod off.

    ''I once fell on the floor at school...

    I then went into the bathroom to make stool...

    I said with a grin...

    If they shall pay to watch me fall again...

    They shall stick their heads in my feces too...''
