you'd prolly be better off with the 35mm, just because it is a bit wider and in theory should be a little more flexible for different types of photos (and if you are on a crop sensor it would give you a field of view just about equivalent to 50mm on full frame, which is pretty close to how we naturally see things) which, consequently also means you can use slower shutter speeds for those low light situations...the 50mm on a crop gives a field of view of a longer (about 75mm) lens and narrower view; this can make it difficult to hand hold with slower shutter speeds...
It's really going to come down to preference. I say rent them both. My experience was that the 35mm wasn't useful for how I shoot and it was too close to the 50mm so I went with the 28 to give me a wider shot if I needed it.
