Hello there all!  How goes it?  My name's Annaleah Michele Lisa.  I'm 17 years old and a Senior at Wilson High School.  I live in beautiful, but rainy, Portland Oregon.  A little bit about me...I'm pretty tall, blonde hair, blue eyes, dancer's build, yada, yada, yada.  My interests are listed below.  I must warn you that I'm slightly technologically challegned, but I'll do my best.  And I only update once a week, so some of my picture pages aren't up.  They will be soon though, so come check me out again!  :)

Okay, this webpage is really just for fun.  I've always just wanted to make my interests and ideas and such known to the general population, and I figure this will be a good start! 

First of all, I LOVE to dance.  It's basically my whole life.  It enables me to share my passion and emotion in an expressive way, and I just love it.  I've done many different kinds, thanks to my wonderful and inspirational dance teacher Miss Lisa.  My favorite is Jazz, and I also like Tap, Modern, Swing, African, Latin, Ballet, Lyrical, and Character, just to name a few.  I also love to sing and act, and performing is my favorite thing to do.  Being up on stage is an incredible feeling.  I've been dancing since I was three, and I'll dance till the day I die!

I also love movies, especially my favorite of all time, The Matrix.  So I'm going to have many many many pictures of the Matrix on here, as well as quotes from the movie and interesting tid-bits.

Another thing I love is Science.  I'm really into anything having to do with space, and I want to be an astrobiologist when I "grow up."  My uncle is the head of the international space station at NASA, and I want to work at the Ames research center in San Fransisco.  Aliens DO exsist!

And don't get me wrong, I'm not a sci-fi freak or anything, but I do like the X-Files and Star Trek.  Not to mention other TV shows like Becker, Frasier, Survivor and Whose Line Is It Anyways. 

All I have to say about my music interest is...Discourage inbreeding: Ban Country music!!!  (no offense to all you country music lovers out there, but Country is the only kind of music I don't like!)

As to religion, I consider myself a Catholic, but I like what my friend Laura describes it as: a Kennedy Catholic.  Basically, I tend to lean toward Catholic beliefs, but I disagree with the church on many a subject.

And last thing really quick...I love to read and write, and I actually like school.  Can you believe it?  I'm very stong in my belief that knowledge is power.  The more you learn, the more you can achieve.

Well, that's about it about me!  I really hope you enjoy my web page!!  And if you'd like to email me with comments, questions, or just to talk, my email address is jazgirl47@hotmail.com.  If you'd like to chat, my AIM screen name is jazgirl47.  Thanks for visiting me!  And have a great day!!!  :)

Weekly update:
-Hi everyone!  Welcome to my webpage.  As you can see, I'm changing the format majorly.  I got bored of the old version, so I'm changing it.  Look around a bit, cause everything's just a tad bit different. 
-As to other updates:  I updated the quotes page, as always, and added a couple of dreams to the dream page.  There are also more "random pictures of me" on the photo page, so click on "Space Camp" in the pink letters below to see all my pictures.
-As for "me" updates:  I finally finished ALL of my college applications, thank GOD, and have now moved on to trying to find a way  to pay for it.  Screw all this, I think I'll move to some abandoned island somewhere and live with the rats. 
-Hope everyone is having a great autumn, and I wish you all a happy holidays.  Last thing, scroll down a bit, I added a holiday poem at the bottom! 
Below are links to my other pages, please check them out, 'cause they're pretty cool!
Just a counter.^
I Love EB.
Whenever you see this button on any page, it will take you back to the home page. 
My Mom's Page (I made it for her)
My Quote page. This is where I post up all the inspiring things I wish I was smart enough to think of.
SPACE CAMP!!!!
Yeah, so my scanner finally works (it just took like 2 years!!)  so I was able to put up some of my pictures from Space Camp up onto a photo page.  There are more coming, but this should satisfy everyone for now.  To all my friends from Space Camp, if you have any pics you'd like me to put up, send them to me, and I'll do my best.  Click on the big "SPACE CAMP" words to get to the page.
PICTURES!
I've got some new pictures up on a photo page.  Most of them are just random pictures of me, but some have family and friends as well.  Check it out, cause it isn't bad.  And there are more on the way, I'm just too tired right this second to scan them in.  Click on the word "Space Camp" to get there.  It'll take you to the main photo page, then click on "random pictures of me, my friends and family".
Pss...don't forget to sign the guestbook!!
Click below to sign my guestbook!!!
This is my Yellow Rose Ensemble  page.  It is the performing group at my dance studio and I am very proud to be a part of it.  It hasn't been updated for quite some time, but I'll fix it soon.
My friends page.  On this page is just a bunch of inside jokes with all my friends.  It also hasn't been updated forever, and I'll get on that, I promise.
My Picture Page.  This page went up before I got a scanner, so there are like three pictures on it.  If you want the real pictures, go up to "Space Camp" and click on it.
Click on the Tap Dogs to go to my dance page.  I'm not even sure what's on there anymore.  But it's definately cool, so go see it.
Ahh, The Matrix.  Only the best movie ever made.  This is my not-worthy tribute to it.
My Dream Page.  Where I post some of the dreams I remember.  I have a very very odd subconcious.
And finally, My Camelot page.  Last spring, Wilson put on Camelot, and these are some pictures, as well as a link to other pictures.  Enjoy.
There is no spoon.
Alrighty, here's the holiday poem I promised.  I got this from my English class last year.  I didn't write it, but I'm not sure who did, either.  Enjoy.

Christ Climbed Down

Christ climbed down
from his bare Tree
this year
and ran away to where
there were no gilded Christmas trees
and no tinsel Christmas trees
and no tinfoil Christmas trees
and no pink plastic Christmas trees
and no gold Christmas trees
and no black Christmas trees
and no powderblue Christmas trees
hung with electric candles
and encircled by tin electric trains
and clever cornball relatives

Christ climbed down
from His bare Tree
this year
and ran away to where
no intrepid salesmen in two-tone cadillacs
and where no Sears Roebuck creches
complete with plastic babe in manger
arrived by parcel post
the babe by special delivery
and where no televised Wise Men
praised the Lord Calvert Whiskey

Christ climbed down
from His bare Tree
this year
and ran away to where
no fat handshaking stranger
in a red flannel suit
and a fake white beard
went around passing himself off
as some sort of North Pole saint
crossing the desert to Bethlehem
Pennsylvania
in a Volkswagon sled
drawn by rollicking Adirondack reindeer
with German names
and bearing sacks of Humble Gifts
from Saks Fifth Avenus
for everyboydy's imagined Christ child

Christ climbed down
from His bare Tree
this year
and ran away to where
no Bing Crosby carollers
groaned of a tight Christmas
and where no Radio City angels
iceskated wingless
thru a winter wonderland
into a jinglebell heaven
daily at 8:30
with Midnight Mass matinees

Christ climbed down
from His bare Tree
this year
and softly stole away into
some anonymous Mary's womb again
where in the darkest night
of everybody's anonymous soul
He awaits again
an unimaginable
and impossibly
Immacualte Reconception
the very craziest
of Second Comings
