It's really cold now. Brrr... If the rain were a little harder, i'd be playing in the rain with my friends right now. Hehehehehe. I know i'm too old to be out running and playing in the rain, but that what we usually do at our village. Me and some neighborhood kids (more or less my age) would run outside and play in the rain. And then we'd take a shower using the aprinkler. HEhehehehe. And when we've dried up, we'd eat my mom's world-famour porridge. And then i'd sleep. Hehehehehehe.

It was just downpouring here. But on days like today I like to just stay inside and read or watch a movie. But on occasion I like to sit outside under a cover with my boyfriend and listen to the rain and talk.

Nah, mom usually encourage me to go out and play. She never really minds that much. She'd always tell me that when she was a kid, she was very active and was always playing outside with her friends. It's better than just sitting around, she'd say, good exercise. HEhehehehe. Yep, my neighbors are my friends. We grew up together in our village. We've been friends since i was little. Hehehehe. Oh, too bad for you. You should try swimming, you know. I had asthma when i was little and my doc suggested i take swimming lessons to strengthen my lungs.

No, i think that is not true. I still stay out in the rain and play with my girls whenever we get the chance. We play volleyball or simply just get soaked while, singing and running around the yard. It is so, nice and wonderful to stay out in the rain, i mean a "gentle rain" at that. Not too cold but very refreshing,we don't have a sprinkler but we do take turns with the garden hose. I usually cook porridge too during the rainy days, and our favorite is the "champorado". It is one of my ways of bonding with my girls.

That sounds like a lot of fun. Gone are the days that I can do that. I'm scared of acid rain! hehehe... Seriously, I live in a condo on a busy street in the middle of a big city, if I go out and play in the rain, people would probably think I'm crazy, they'd probably throw money at me out of pity or else, the police might get me and hold me for disruptive behaviour... hehehe..

When I was younger I would always go outside and play in the rain with my sister and our neighbors. It was so much fun. We would get our swimsuits on and just run around and splash in the puddles. It has been cold and rainy here too. I have been trying to refinish a table in our garage, and this damp weather isn't helping. Tonight I moved them to the basement so I could work on them. Usually when it rains I like to watch a good movie and cuddle up on the couch.

Well I am always happy when it rains as we are still desperately short of water and I hope that enough rain will fall to fill our damns again. But apart from that I love to listen to the rain especially when it is heavy.

I never tried to play in the rain when I was small,because I scared of getting a cold. After I have grown up,when it is raining,I like to cover myself in the blanket and sleep. If I am not sleepy,I would make myself a hot drink while watching television. It's so relaxing to stay at home sitting on the sofa and watching television. Lol. Most of the rainy days,I like to stay at home.

During rainy days i prepare some soup or something hot to warm our stomach then watch tv. That is usually the only thing i do during rainy days. It is hard to be out in the rain and im not anymore that young to play in the rain either lol. When i was 7 i play in the rain with my friends. But now that i am a grown up person i spend my time watching tv or surf the net after meals. I tried to avoid sleeping though since it makes me lazy the whole day when i started sleeping.

Well when it rains here we usually just enjoy the sounds and stay inside. My fiance's mother doesn't like us going out while it's raining and if we do she tells us to be careful, and mostly to hurry back. It's getting cold outside, so the rain will also be cold, and could turn into freezing rain or sleet, so I would imagine my fiance and I to stay inside where it's warm. I know as a kid it was fun to go play in the rain, but I really wasn't allowed to as my mom didn't want me to catch a cold. It might just be different places have different ways, I know that I had a childhood friend younger then me who was able to go outside and play in the rain. When I was allowed too, the rain would soon stop.

I wished it is raining here in my place right now, it was so hot and kinda summer despite that it is October. Anyway, I usually do when is raining is just curled on the sofa, reading some books or face my computer, doing mylot or surfing on the net while drinking a cup of hot chocolate. Kinda feel lazy when it is raining, because of the cold temperature.

Hello super jj! I do the same like what you said. I play in the rain with my brothers and neighbors. That was before and not anymore. I am in different place now. If it rains here, I would just like to stay inside our house and watch tv or surf in the net because it is too much cold outside when it rains. And wear my sweatshirt for me to keep warm..hehe

When I was young, I played in the rain. I always dream to rain everyday so I could play together with my friends. Sometimes, when I asked my parents if we could take a bath in the rain and they didn't allow me to do so, I cried out loud but i have no choice. I pitied myself especially when I saw that my friends enjoyed playing in the rain, while i am stucked in our house. But now, that i'm grown up. Everytime it rains, I just stay at home and sleep the whole day. It makes me really lazy if it's too cold. happy mylotting!
