mosquito repellent

you guys are probably pretty tired of me talking about malaria this and malaria that. too bad. anyway, this one's a bit more personal. i've started a new mosquito repellent regimen - raw garlic. it was an idea from a friend who labored finding non-smelly garlic capsules in borneo. i say "why bother with the pills"? raw garlic seems the way to go - it's cheap, it tastes great, and i think it's got a bunch of other health benefits that i can't recall. a handful of us here have started the garlic regimen together so we can all neutralize the "healthful odor" we are emitting from our bodies. we all stink together. and why should i even care? the only boy i want to kiss is 13,000 miles away, and i don't think he'd even notice me popping several of these throughout the day like candy. so far so good. i've only been bitten twice in the past 3 days.
