Thoughts

The most common problem bloggers face is other peoples judgement. We do lots of other stuff aswell besides blogging! I just dont publish everything that goes on in my life on my blog, or on the web for that matter. Everything doesnt have to be all black and white. When did caring about ones apperance become equal to being dumb? Yes, I do have my blonde moments, but everyone have those! Everytime I tell someone I have a blog, I feel some sort of ashamed and branded. Like clothes and makeup is all I ever care about. I can take a friendly joke now and then, but what I dont like at all, is people thinking they know me just because they have seen my blog. Newsflash: you dont!

This is my little piece of the Internet, where I can escape reality for a couple of minutes, and only surround myself with pretty things. Even though this particular site is mostly about shallow stuff like fashion and makeup, keep in mind that it is actually possible to care about something without it having to define who you are as a person. This is a passion and a hobby, not my life. It is a part of me, but not me as a whole person.


You see it everywhere, heck I even do it all the time. Stating weheartit as a resource of the picture you are sharing. For those of you who dont know what weheartit is, let me brief you quickly. This is webpage where you can download an addon for your browser, and everytime you see a picture you like you can “heart” it, and at the same time share it in an online album. These pictures often get hearted from tumblr or other blogs. You can also heart pictures from other peoples profiles directly on the page. The pictures are often without there true resource linked. The webpage do have a service that lets you claim copyright, but once a picture is on there, its impossible to get it away.

I would love to know the source of a lot of pictures, and see more from specific persons. But most of the time it is impossible to track down the real source. So instead of just not sharing that picture I just use wehearit as a source, even though it breaks the rules of copyright. At least I dont try to make it look like I took the picture myself. In the future I will get better at stating resources. A tool for doing reversed image search is TinEye, I use this alot. When you enter a picture here they do a search on other pages looking for that exact picture. Even so, most of the time you dont find anything. All my posted pictures have the source stated on them, you may check it by hovering the current picture.
