Tolerance and Understanding: Jun 18, 2010
I am frustrated about haven't been sleeping well during the past few nights. I was badly bitten by the mosquitoes while sleeping.
One of my friends once said, "we should give much more tolerance to those we do not understand. (可以不理解，但是要宽容。) I incline to this view. As to mosquitoes, I can't hold my tolerance. I understand that mosquitoes have to suck blood if they want to produce offspring. However, mosquitoes may transport disease while sucking. The bite makes people feel itch. I always scratch the mosquito bites. But the more I scratch, the more itchier I get. What a pain!
So, the mosquito is an exception. I can understand but can't tolerate.

You cannot use bug repelant?
I hear that if you rub the rind (white part of) a lemon skin on your skin or first put strong lemon juice on you, then rub with the whites of the rind, it may repel the mosquito. Also, a mosquito net would do you well.
May be you can ask a question here on italki and get many answers from different countries. Ask, "Do you know of any home remedies to keep mosquitoes away?"
