My name is Gabrielle but everyone calls me Gabbie. A privileged few call me Gabs. (Family & close friends only) People always misspell my name because the "-ie" spelling of my nickname is not common. I'm letting you know now cause I get P.O.ed when people misspell my name. I'm 15 years old. I am half Filipino (Spanish, Chinese, & native Filipino) and half white (Irish, English, Scottish, & Austrian) and proud of it. I have one older sister and I have one dog - a shih tzu. His name is Abu - after the monkey in the movie Aladdin. Yup. We named our dog after a monkey. I live in South Seattle and I'm a sophomore at Holy Names Academy, which is an all girls school. Yup, it's pretty much an ongoing estrogenfest but it's cool cause the hilarious inappropriate convos we girls have make up for it.

Fav. books: Angels & Demons by Dan Brown, The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown, Lucia, Lucia by Adriana Trigiani, The Big Stone Gap trilogy by Adriana Trigiani, Queen of the Big Time by Adriana Trigiani, all the Harry Potter books (but the 3rd and 4th books are the best, & HBP is so depressing) by J.K. Rowling, The Mediator series by Meg Cabot, Ready or Not by Meg Cabot, (basically anything by Meg Cabot I love), Born Confused by Tanuja Desai Hidier, When the Elephants Dance by Tess Uriza Holthe, Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy, anything by Shakespeare (A Midsummer Night's Dream & The Merchant of Venice are my favorites), Shabanu by Suzanne Fisher Staples, Haveli by Suzanne Fisher Staples, Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
