summer itch

as much as sun is amazing and heat is much awaited to australians as they can show off their skins, i dread the thought of heat and humidity...Lightness and the scent of summer blossoms excites my senses but it also is the breeding ground for insects that finds my skin and blood type appealing. as if they are vampires in the light sucking out fresh blood and lives its victim in pain in the form of itch and red spots and even with much hydrocortisone,oral antihisamines, antiseptic and relieving gels, it leaves a mark. I hate it. I have experienced severe insecurity as i was growing up in the Philippines, as no matter how our dwelling place's cleanliness is maintained, i still suffer... Caladryl and sebo de macho are my best friends and long pants and skirts.It has been years that i havent experienced the itch, but today sadly i have to endure again. luckily i am not alone, many australians have the same sensitive skin as i have but they never experience ridicules and torments from others.... For them its just the summer itch from summer insects (fleas, flies, gigantoc mozzies, mites).But for a filipina like me, i hate the itch... The hotter the temperetaure the itchier it gets...Thank God for Bio Oil and swimming pools...
