For me, I prefer to shine all day. Since there is an airconditioning system in the malls and elsewhere I can spend my time there to rest and have a fun time. If it gets raining there is no way of telling of flashfloods and I really don't like rain especially if it bring floods, talk about the cockroaches swimming and the rats. Eeewwww... Which do you prefer a rainy day or a sunny day?? Have a nice day. Enjoy the sun shine and the raindrops.

I actually like both, rain as well as sun. If I am going to college, of course after spending time in college, I will get tired and if I move out in the sun, I will have head ache, so at that time I would enjoy rain, but if I am not going to college and simply sitting at home, I would prefer sun because when sitting at home and it is raining, so I will feel really cold and I don't like too much of cold. So, I would prefer sun at such situation.

That's nice. Well I hope the weather cooperates with you so that you won't have a nasty headache while going to college. I really dislike going to school when something in my system is not right. It just makes me want to stay at home and sleep it all through the day. Have a nice day. Thanks for sharing. Happy mylotting.

Yea, I really hope that I don't get headaches every time or I should say anytime. But lets see. I too feel very sleepy and want to sleep the whole day but I know that isn't possible. Have a nice day!

well, i have no problem whether its rainy or sunny day! both can do for me as long as its not too much! huh! with rain, i feel so relaxed at home...haha and the environment is kinda cold so it helps me in saving some electricity...but of course i don't also like too much rain especially when it causes some floods...and actually here where i am living now, too much rain also brings water inside our house! huh! so many leaks from the roof & walls...hehe but anyway, raining can also do many good things in the environment...and it is needed for a balance... with sunny day...well i like it especially when i am doing the laundry! hehe sun dry clothes is always best for me...it smells better...plus...i like sunshine due to its good effects in our body...you know we get vitamin D...which our body also needs...but of course too much of sun exposure can also harm our health... so balance is important in everything... have a nice day!

That's really great that you like both rainy and sunny weather as long as its not too much. Ya, I believe that too much of everything is really bad. I can really feel you with the relaxation on a rainy day with cold wind and all. I would like to clarify things. The sunlight help synthesize the Vitamin D in our body. We never really got the vitamin D from the sun. Instead it is already there in our body and once we receive the sunlight it is being synthesize and ready to be use. Happy mylotting.

hello marctiu! okay, thanks for the clarification...hehe so sunlight and rain do have their advantages & disadvantages in every person's life...hehe that's why we just need enough of both of them....but too bad that we can't control nature...that's why sometimes rain becomes too much that causes la niña, and sometimes heat becomes too much that causes la niño...and these occurances are also sometimes due to man's actions to nature...huh!

hello, marctiu, to me, it depends. When I am on the way, I hope it is shining, so that I don't have to hold umbralla when i am walking... WhenI am at home and don't planing to go ourside, I would prefer raining... I like watching it raining and hear the raining sound.... and I like the view too. But if I see it rain for too long a time, I hope I can see the sun again, because raining too much to makes me feel blue. I think I am a girl who change her mood easily.

I really hate having an umbrella with me when I go out of the house. I hate umbrellas they are so uncomfortable to have around. With a rainy weather staying at home relaxing is incomparable. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

I would prefer to have sunny days. There was a few times when it got sunny after a short rainfall and you could see a rainbow. I thought it was pretty cool to see a rainbow. I like sunny days because they are warmer and you get a lot of sunlight than on rainy days. Rainy days make me feel sad.

I like rainbows pretty much. It is a reminder of God's promise that he will not flood away people anymore like in the Noah's ark story. I also like the warmth of the sun, but to much of it make me sweat and irritates me. Have a nice day. Thanks for sharing.

For some weird reasons, I am happiest during rainy days. I don't really know why...perhaps it gives me a sense of calmness and emo-ness :P. The ambience that the rainy days brings give me time to reflect and ponder on even the simplest things in life.

That's really good. I believe that rain brings out your positive emotion. Rain always bring a person to an inner peace and relaxation. It is true that the ambiance of the rain is relaxing. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

I like the sunshine if it is not too hot. I live where it is very hot in the summer and I don't like our sunny days at all. Yuk. I can't even go outside because I hate the hot. I like our winters better, all cold and I do like the rain. When it is cold and rainy, then I can go outside. I don't like the roaches and rats either but we use poison for them.

I believe that global warming have really turn a knot in this planet. This year alone when we are having a summer vacation we encounter typhoons and storms. It is very unusual. I guess this is the result of global warming. Well, might as well enjoy the precious last day of our existence. Hahaha... Just continue to pray. I really don't believe in poisoning this creatures. I might as well stomp them and just exterminate them right away.

I think most people enjoy the sunshine with blue skies. However, there is nothing like a dark rainy morning when you can sleep late.

I really can say that dark clouds can really make a person lazy. I guess that is right because everytime it is acting to start to rain I really feel sleepy and just want to sleep the whole day through. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting. Thanks for sharing.

I love both but a certain time. Shine all day is nice and also rain all night is great. Its like a natural air condition and we can get a good night sleep. I love sleeping during rain in the night, because the sound of the rain drops are like lullaby for me. lol..

Just like yesterday. I slept all through the night with the cold wind running through my skin. I just really want to feel the cold of the wind and the warmth of the blanket all together. It make me want to feel safe inside the womb of my mother and position myself in a fetal position. So perfect. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

I enjoy the rain. In Texas we have sunshowers, those are great. The sound of the rain is very relaxing and cools the heat down just a bit. We did just have about 12 days of rain non-stop. That was rare for us, I forgot what the sun was like, so it was a nice change when the sun finally did come out.

That's really nice. It has been a very long time since we encounter a situation like that. Right now. We can only have a light rain and a sunny day. So frustrating. I really am not used to the heat. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

I prefer to have a Sunshine because on rainy days its very messy and muddy... and sometime came to a point that it will flood.

I agree on that messy stuff. Waters can really overflow and really dirty water comes from the sewer and all you can do is to walk through it. So yuck. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

when i want to go out, i want a sunny day. if im at home, i like to see the rain. i don't mean the strong rain that brings floods and causes devastating aftermath. i like the soft, cold rain that empathizes with you especially when you are sad...

I really believe the rain can calm our souls and help is relax. I really love listening to love songs under the rain. It just inspired me to be in love more. Have a nice day. Enjoy.

We need them both friends. How could we life on the earth is going on just by sunlight. We need water too right? And that comes from the rain. Ask the tree and plant drought. What do they need? they need water and it was impossible to take from the tap water. Rain and sunshine are two systems in the earth that sustain our lives.

I believe that it is the cycle of life have something to do with rain and sun. Nothing on earth can survive if there is no balance between these two. In short, We need both of them. But what do you enjoy most my friend? Rainy days or Sunny days. That's my query. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

I really like the sun shine, but then again I love a good soft gentle rain if I don't have anything planned and I am going to stay at home. Here latly I have really enjoyed the rain because we have been in a draought. A good hard rain at night is also very nice to fall asleep too. But if I am and have things to do I prefer it to be sunny and no rain. Like to day my sister mom and I have plans to do some antique shopping today and it is raining and I am very bummed out because it is not going to be a fun day

Rain is really a good way to have a relaxing day. I believe that rain really carries a special aura to make people go under its spell and feel the coldness and the gentleness of it that people can really go fast asleep with rain. Have a nice day.

Either/or is fine. When I'm sick or in a blah mood I prefer to just sit out in the sun. It does wonders. Oddly enough, in a good mood I prefer rainy weather, just sittin' in it or going for a walk. It tends to cleanse more than the body.. ENJOY!

That's a nice thought. I never thought to be sitting all day undr the sun under a bad mood and also sitting under the rain on a good mood. I rather choose the vice versa of it. Hahaha... Thanks for sharing. Have a nice day.

In Chennai (India) its really hot and the weather is horrible. Rain is very rare and its difficult to predict too ;) I love rain... I feel that they make the city look nice and clean... The trees and other plants gets its natural color. Its so beautiful... Less traffic on roads. School kids get an off. So its kind-a fun here when it rains :)

I guess that it is true. Rain can really help clean up the city from the dust and pollution. Rain can also help trees to grow. I believe that here in my town we don't have an off in school when it rains. We can only have an off if the rain gets really nasty. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

for me? i really like both rainy day and a sunny day. rainy because, that is the only time i can sleep because it's cold. sunny because, i can enjoy playing and going outside especially viewing and seeing the beauty of nature and other things. and i think it's a 65% for sunny and 35% for rainy _

So you prefer sunny more. Well, I guess that having a sunny day is really nice because we can enjoy life to the extent without any boundaries. If it is raining we can't really go out and play, otherwise we get all wet and dirty.

i hate rainy days, as it always makes me miserable and wants to sleep... The sun shine is the best because i am able to go out and enjoy the sun and go about the city and the beach... but when it is raining all i can do is stay indoor and there really isnt much to do if just staying indoor unless you have friends around... and i think raining days are the worst when you have a bad day or bad week... it just doubles the effect..
