Ah, the weather... I live on the equator so there's not much to talk about as it never ever changes. :3 With that said, I love the rain, especially when it pours! As a child, I hated the rain as it usually got in the way of outdoor activities and it's especially terrible when you have to catch the school bus in the middle of the rain without an umbrella. However, a couple of years back, there was a water shortage in the city and it was really to hard to bear, what with the limited water that we were allowed to use and the city stinking up. Ever since, I couldn't love the rain more. Give me rain any day over the sun. 83

I've been to Disneyland, and I remember it being cloudy and there might be a little drizzle. It was a bit of a damper but that didn't stop us for staying. It was my first time visiting Disneyland and I believe that come rain, hail or snow and I would still stuck there until the day was over. ;)

I think I felt the same way when I was little. Always hated it, but I was never allowed to go outside. Now that I'm older, I have a fun time running around in it as I please. xD

[serenitytouched]

I've never been to Disneyland. =[

I love rain. Now, maybe not so much when I was walking to class, but if I want to get wet or don't mind, I love it. I used to live out in the boonies where the nearest house you could barely see was a speck over the pastures.

From my old backyard, you could see the storm clouds and the best smell in the world to me was the wind that would start picking up from it. Then when it rained, I loved just running around in it like an idiot in the open fields.(lol asking to be struck by lighting)

It's been really dry lately. It just barely started to rain recently, but yeah. I think I'm in my best mood when it's raining/storming outside. I feel more... close to it. Apparently I was born when it was storming. I wonder if that's why? xD

[nerocorleone]

Funny, how everyone always talks about the smell after the rain, when of course, the smell of the wind before a storm is one of the bestestest smells in the world.

[serenitytouched]

Hehe, yes. They don't know what they are missing out.

I like rain a lot. Of course, there are different situations and different kinds of rain, but in general I'd say I like it.
Which probably is a good thing, as we do get our fair share of rain where I live. On the whole, days seem to be grey more often than not.

I've never been to Disneyland, and don't really want to go.
I think I wanted to go there, when I was little - but my parents didn't want to hear anything of this... uhm... capitalistic-imperialistic nonsense.
These days I'm not even remotely interested. I don't know... it just isn't my idea of fun, I suppose. Not sure if that's my parents fault.

[serenitytouched]

I think there's nothing wrong with having no desire to go. There's some things that seem fun for people, but I'm like... eh, pass.

Of course it might be one of those things where you just have to experience it to really say if you hate it or not. I tried something for a friend before that they like doing, and I really didn't care for it. I gave it shot, but I kind of figured I wouldn't like it.

I kinda hate the rain.... You see I am from a Mediterranean country so I am used to really Sunny weather and now that I am in Scotland my biggest problem is the rain. I mean it was ridiculous during Autumn... it honestly rained for 11 days NON-STOP. The sun didn't appear nearly at all all these days. I am such a huge fan of sunny weather! I mean what's more beautiful and inspiring than to wake up and have a beautiful LARGE BLUE sky above you and a warm bright Sun. I don't know if it's because of my culture that I love the sun so much but honestly... I don't like the rain. I am not saying that I wouldn't live in a place with a lot of rain but if I could stay somewhere else... with better weather... I would

[serenitytouched]

I wouldn't blame you if you had to live in it for a very long time. For me it's kind of a month out a whole year, so I suppose that's why I love it. I wonder if I'd still feel the same if I moved somewhere really rainy though. xD

[edellin]

Mmm I think my aversion towards rain is more because of my love for sun. True the fact that I had a couple of months here with a lot of rain may have affected me but... I think it's more that I am used to sunny days with a rain from time to time... but not the heavy raining that takes place here. XD

But you know... if I moved at Africa... I may start hating the sun because of the luck of rain.

[serenitytouched]

Ha, you know that made me think maybe I don't like the sun much because I burn like paper.

[serenitytouched]

I def. don't like hot/humid weather. Then rain is just so yucky. @_@

[moodiful819]

This is probably the best description of humid weather I've ever seen because it's true! Humid weather always makes me feel like I want to peel off my skin like that Shel Silverstein poem.
