aye.

i don't get on here so much, but I still enjoy writing.

singing without tongues . . .
hello there, it's a pleasure you meet you. here's the basics, all right?
my name is gabrielle, but let's not be formal and just call me gabby.
i used to be known as "kanbashii," here in fanfictionland. you know,
i really have no idea why my sister chose that pen name for me. i
mean, doesn't it mean ... fragrance, or something? wtf. but back when
i joined, i was young and naive and i didn't really care. so i changed
my name to SwitchGab; in honor of my aim screen name, and it's a
combination of my favorite band and my name. anyways, i'm pretty
much an average teen. i love art. i play the guitar, draw, sing -- but
singing is only for the shower. i also adore writing and reading, which
is one of the reasons why i joined fanfiction back then. duh ~ (:

screaming without lungs . . .
this section is strictly a dedication to my favorite band, and a list of
other artists i fancy. so yes, if you haven't noticed, my favorite band
is Switchfoot. my dedication towards them is something i can't even
start to explain. when i first heard of them, i thought they were pretty
cool. fast forward a bit, and i actually bought their cd 'the beautiful
letdown' and listened to the lyrics. i was blown away. i felt this ...
this incredible sensation that totally ripped open my chest and i
was exposed to all these magnificent lyrics that talked about life, love,
and everything in between. i could relate to them. it's like, jon wrote
those songs for himself, but i found them almost ... like he took them
right out of my brain. it's amazing. above all that - jon, tim, chad,
jerome, and drew are the most down to earth and genuine people
i've known and met. they changed me. they made me want to become
a better person. and because of that, i will never let them go. they
are a part of me. well, typing all this makes me feel nostalgic and in
need of a concert. so, other bands that have made a great impact on
my life: anberlin, relient k, lifehouse, this holiday life, family force 5,
the classic crime, ruth, jack's mannequin, jimmy eat world, jonas brothers,
paramore, muse, molly jenson, weezer, and incubus. trust me, there's
a lot more i can list. but i'll stop there.

i want more than my lonely nation . . .
i mentioned i don't go on here much, but i do still read some fanfics
that i find interesting. i used to have such a big obsession with KH
kingdom hearts - and i still do, but the fire is just a flicker of flame.
i like reading KH fanfics. i also love reason LOST fanfics. that tv show
is genius. i'm a sucker for disney channel, so of course i'll read some
of those. oh oh oh! i'm also a sucker for the twilight series. (pun
totally and completey intended.) seriously, stephenie meyer is a pretty
awesome author. random anime/manga, tv shows/movies ... i'm down.

desperate we are young // separate we are young // i want more than my desperation // i want more than my lonely nation
