For those who have it, they would say it's easy to find. For those who have never felt it would say it doesn't exist. And for those who lost it would say that it's complicated. Others describe the feeling as ecstacy while some often confuse it with lust. Few would define it as euphoria while a selected bunch would express it as heart breaking.

Love.

It's what some people search for their entire lives, while others run at every opportunity. This particular word fills most of our hearts with happiness. However, love also showers us with grief and loneliness, the main reason why we hide from it.

Love is a leap.

For those who jump, they're greeted by forever, as some people often define love as a benchmark for commitment. But for the unfortunate few who have leaped, they're often scarred and forever stuck in turmoil, forever running from the hurt love has to give.

Love is ... hard to define, hard to grasp, hard to let go of, & hard to understand.

I often hear, that once you're in love, it's forever. You're forever doomed to feel that way for one particular person for the rest of your whole, entire, long, old life. I also hear that with love, comes pain. I also hear that love changes you, it makes you a better person, an accepting person.

Love is all around us.

Poets, musicians, singers, authors, artists, dancers and actors have all blossomed from love. We see Hallmark profit from cupid's victims and the price of roses reach sky high on valentines day. On sidewalks to beaches we see couples holding hands, intimately hugging and passionately kissing. Every year, thousands die from broken hearts, thousands also spend endless amounts of money on frosting, and of course, for that special day. Millions of tears fall due to the happiness & sadness love blesses us with.

There are no constraints, rules, or boundaries when it comes to this word .. & that's for sure ... and maybe that's why it's so complicated. Because if there were constraints, I'd know what to do in order to avoid the hurt. If there were rules, I'd follow them to find happiness. And lastly, if there were boundaries, I'd know for certain what love would feel like & whether or not I'm in love.

As you've guessed, my name is Thea which is greek for goddess. I'm a seventeen year old, who currently attends Macquarie University studying B-Comm accounting.

I was born on the eighteenth day of April 1990, which makes me a firey Aries and born in the year of the Horse, who has a love for diamonds and romance.

I am an only child which explains the abnormal behaviour I promulgate. Throughout the years I've learned how to entertain myself without turning into a complete psychopath. Unfortunately, I dislike the spoilt brat cliche I'm often imposed with. I don't consider myself a snob, who is obsessed with materialistic highs. Although I admit I can be a brat .. sometimes, especially when you push the wrong buttons.

I'd assume if you met me, you'd think I'm very much angelic, quiet & bubbly. Only the last would probably be true. I'd say I have split personalities, not only split but multiple! One day I could be tearing your head off, the next I'd be showering you with hugs & kisses. But one thing is certain, whatever my mood, I'll express it with my face & actions. I'm often told that I have mature thoughts, & that only applies sometimes as I'm a kid at heart.

My hair is naturally brown, so please don't annoy me by asking what colour dye I use. My father being spanish explains why an Asian like me doesn't have charcoal black hair. I was born and raised for four years in the Philippines until my family migrated to Australia.

Being asian has its quirks, such as having the ability to outrun anything, having a super fast metabolism, believing in the supernatural and being tiny enough to fit into small crevices. Or maybe the last aberration only applies to me, I'm what you would call 'petite.'

I follow the Catholic religion, so you'd probably see me attending church every Sunday morning or night and reading the bible for inspirational quotes on how to live my life. But this doesn't mean I'm perfect, I do of course have flaws.

You'll see me prowling around the area with mainly boys. Boys are genuine & don't usually obsess about useless gossips. I enjoy being one of the boys. Playing sports, being immature and immersing myself in obscure activities, which in most cases are illegal, absolutely hilarious and extremely fun!

Yes, I'm an athletic type. I'll be up for anything! Throughout my years, the sports that I have competed in have been Basketball, Indoor Soccer & Swimming.

Not only do I enjoy playing, but I love watching sports. What girl can resist hot, sweaty boys? With their big muscular arms and athletic body. Rugby does it for me! & those basketball & soccer players - oh damn.

I'm currently content with being single. I'm not looking for anything temporary, & I'm not really keen in looking or testing out the waters. But you know what they say, you think you know what you want .. but you really haven't a clue. If you're really something amazing, you may sweep me off my feet without me or you even knowing.

I have issues with technology, as I believe they killed any prospects of romance. Then again it could just be the boys of my generation that don't seem to have the romantic gene. Old fashioned dates is something I want revived!

Reading beautiful prose is what I live for. I'm what you would call a book nerd and I'm a sucker for Romance novels. Although a hearty laugh is what I love. Books allow me to escape into a realm on contentment, which my life usually lacks.

Throughout my life, I've met a few bad eggs, so don't hate if I have trust issues. I also have a habit of twisting your words to suit my frame of mind. It takes someone special to beat me at my mind games. My advise, give up & let me win, you'll do me & yourself a favour.

Feel privilaged if I call you a friend. This does not include if you are someone on my MSN list or if I have accepted you on myspace. But once you're in my little network of 'true friends' you'll be showered with love & appreciation. You'll also get an earful of how great I am & how lucky you are to have someone sexy like me in your life!

I'm going to end with the best thing to do in the world! & that is eating. It's my favourite thing to do! Food is the most beautiful thing on this whole entire planet. It never disappoints! More likely than not you'll find me chewing, if not, i'll have a bag of treats secretly stashed.
