Just a bit about me

Hey guys! My name is Annaleigh  Newall  and I am a freshman here at University of Montana. I am from a small town north of Seattle called Mount Vernon. I have 2 siblings, a younger sister, who is almost 16 and a younger brother who is 11. I have danced since I was 8 years old. I have competed with dance for 8 years and I taught dance for 2 years to 2-10 year olds. Dance is my passion. I tried other sports before I stumbled on dance, but found dance to be my passion. I love anything to do with dance, whether it’s taking a class or teaching or performing on stage. I feel that compared to the normal person, I know a lot about dance., but there's still always more to learn. In fact, I am minoring in dance here at UM. My  major is business management. I am hoping to open my own dance studio when I grow up. I have always found writing to be one of my stronger suits. It is definitely not my favorite, but it’s not something that I hate doing either. When I do write, it is generally just to complete assignments that are required of me in school. I am not the type of person to just sit down and write just to write. I also enjoy writing letter! I love getting mail. Some problems I have had with writing are using correct formats that are required. Also, I sometimes have trouble with making sure that I am staying on topic while I am writing. But other than this, writing has always come naturally to me. I have always been good at spelling and punctuation and connecting my thoughts to paper. My teachers throughout my schooling before college have always told me that I have good voice in my writing. My favorite place to write would probably be at my kitchen table at home with a nice hot coffee next to me. Growing up with siblings and a kid friendly house, I am used to there always being noise when I am doing homework so I can’t work when it’s too quiet. But, if my favorite kitchen table spot isn’t available, then I will gladly choose a comfy chair in front of the fireplace with a warm fire going and that same coffee.
