Are you the kind of person who loves rainy days? Well, I am. It has been raining the whole day here in my place and I am loving it. I do not know why but the the streets look lovelier when it is wet. I guess one of the reasons why I love rainy days is because I live in a tropical country and it is hot mostly the whole year round. Rainy days are my break from the sweating and irritation because of the heat. What about you? Thanks for sharing!

I love the rain. I let the kids play in it if its not too bad or too cold. They love it! I woke up this morning and went to take the kids to school and it looked like it was going to rain but it has since cleared up and gotten hotter (BLAH). Oh well....maybe some other day! Hopefully soon...

I know an afternoon rain is refreshing , but I like sunny days better. I have trouble getting going on rainy days , rainy days are lazy days for me. The sun gives me energy to go out and do things . I love a sunny day !

rain - the rain gives the earth water.
I am different. I don't like the rain. It is so inconvenient to go out when it rains. So I find it quite boring if it rains in the weekends. I think it's OK to rain at night when I am home:) I love China

I know what you mean. I lived in Singapore for a couple of years and I loved the weather. It really suited me for some reason and I thrived in it. My health was excellent so was my weight. I too, loved the rainy days. I've always loved the rain unless it's really bad and I have to drive in it.

Sometimes, after a long dry season, it is amazing to have drizzles and rains for a few days. Especially when you go to the green field, gardens full of lawns, you literally smell the fresh grass. It is just peotic. But for my knees and back, long time humidity is no fun. I would rather bright sunshine and watch kids playing outdoors. After a long winter, I miss the lively spring and sunshine.

Maybe for you that is excellent,but it is not so good for me.the reason are as follow.first,When it was rain,it is inconvenient for us to go out.Second,our close wouldn't dry easily and if it doesn't dry after several,the close would distribute some bad smell.Third,If it rains,the weather would be cold.Although I don't like rainy days,there have many advantages for rain.Crops can take in enough water,in the summer,we'll feel cool in the rain days,a lot of dust cover the street will be washed and restore clean as it was in the past.Have a good time!

I love rainy days too...not sure why. I think I focus more on indoor projects that need to be done. I also love the smell and sound of the rain. I don't know...I like all of the weather really except for the extreme hot or cold.

I am not one that really likes rainy days. I tend to be less motivated and less perky on rainy days. I do like to watch the rain on a summer day, especially when rainbows appear. I really do not like the rain when it is cold outside, for me, that is the worst. I can handle it much better on a nice warm day, and when it is only a light rain!

I never like rains. rains give us a lot of inconvenience when we are outside. when it is cold, rains make us feel colder. when it is with high humility, rains make it extremely humid. but I do love after rains. after rains, we can see rainbow if sun come out and rains clean the dust and make air much fresh.

when i was a little girl before went to school,i liked raining and rainy days.i enjoyed playing in rain with my friends,especially in summer,we played with mud and water.in summer,i hated sunny days for it is too hot to play. science i went to school,i don't like rainy days any more.because it gives me many troubles to my school life.the road made soil always full of mud and muck. i had no raincoat no umbrella no waterproof-boots that times,so rain made me unhappy and it gave me a deep impression in my heart. and now,all the things have been changed.i haven't been suffered from the inconvenience brought by the rainy days any more,but i will have bad mood at once it rains.maybe it had hurt me too deep to forget.

Yes, I personally love rainy days:) Unfortunately I do not live in a tropical country, I live in America. I would however really like to live in Seattle, because I know that when it is not cold and snowing it is very green and rainy. I enjoy sitting on the couch in front of a fire while it is raining outside. Especially while reading a good book.

I love rainy days...unless I have to be out and about in the rain. I love to stay home and enjoy the lazy weather when it rains. Rainy days make me want to stay inside and curl up on the couch all day long!

When I was very young I was living where it rained often and almost every time it rained I would go walking in the rain. Then when I was 17 I had a serious attack of asthma and I've had asthma ever since. I had to eventually move and the dampness really raises cane with me. No more walking in the rain for me.

Well sometimes I love rainy days especially during the summer like if I have to mow the lawn and when it rains I cant so im pretty happy. But one reason why I dont like rainy days is because I always feel very tired I dont know if its just me or what but the rain just makes me tired.

This may sound a bit selfish but I love rainy days when I am at home. I live on the 9th floor in the apartment so when it's heavy rain I have to close all the windows. I love to laze in bed and read my storybook when it rains. Or when I am doing some preparation in the kitchen or washing the dishes, I just look out of the window and see the rain. If the rain is not heavy then the windows will be left open to let the breeze and wind come in. It's very nice. But if I am outside then I do not like the rain as it is very troublesome especially if I am on a motorbike. If I am in a car it's not so bad but the traffic will be heavy as everyone tends to drive more slowly.

Well it depend on the situation. I like it when Im home, and usually I will make a mug of coffee and cover myself with a blanket, then I will watch the rain from the window. But if Im outside and trapped in someplace, or I get wet and then I get cold because of it, I dont like it at all.
