Don’t you love this time of year? Mosquitos begin to hatch. The winter chill starts to sound nice after a few 90-degree days in a row. And of course, thousands of graduations take place across the country, and each and every one of them has a speech to go with it.

Most graduation speeches quote Robert Frost and say the word “future” a lot and point out that commencement means beginning, not ending, blah blah blah. But some of them are actually original and good! HuffPo has compiled a list of the best speeches this year, and they are definitely worth watching.

We already told you about Tom Hanks talking to Yale, but Amy Poehler wins, I think.
