Picspam… We♥It

“I like…boys on swings, and girls on skateboards. I like babies in high chairs. I like pharmaceutical medicine wrappers. I like people in hats with big eyebrows – I like people in hats with big eyebrows and big moustaches. I like water caught in spiders’ webs. I like wearing all my clothes at once. I like people who don’t smile. Ever. And I like people who smile. I like hair that goes on and on. [...] In some ways I love…everything. It’s less…less of a thing than ‘like’…less distinct. Less…particular. I like things that I like but I love everything. There’s more choice than ‘like’. Because even the worst things have things to love in them. I love things so much I feel like I could float away.”

I was so thrilled when WeHeartIt unvieled their “new” version of the website. Before, it would load so painfully slowly I was having nightmares about the horrors of dial-up thinking it had returned to seek venegance upon us all. Thankfully, not the case. And I’m so happy because I always loved WeHeartIt. It always has such beautiful and inspiring photos. Definitely my number one go to spot when trying to get my creative juices flowing. (Above are some recent favourites I’ve saved.)

I did the same. It was brutal before! And even though I loved it SO much, waiting hours for it to load just wasn’t worth it. So so glad it’s back and working now.*clings*

That quote is fantastic, Cassie has always been one of my favourite characters from Skins. Great words to start a week ;)
And I love all the photos you posted!

I miss Skins. Can’t wait for the new season to start. :D

And strangely, I never like Cassie while I’m actually watching the show. It only seems to be afterward when I start thinking about the things she does/says that I like her. It’s weird. But she’s very insightful, and I really like that about her.

That quote is awesome, it makes me want to start watching Skins even more, haha. WeHeartIt is definitely the place to go to get inspired… absolutely love the “new” version of it too, it was sooo painfully slow before. Beautiful pictures you’ve chosen.

Oh man, it was AWFUL in terms of slowness before. It was painful. I stopped using it for a while because of it. So glad it works more normally now. (Though it’s still a bit sluggish for me, but not nearly as bad, so I can forgive it. :P)

These pictures flow together so well. Your blog actually introduced me to the whole “Picspam” thing; so I’m sort of a little snobby when I go around and see other ones that aren’t as well-put together as yours! :) You’ve done that to me!! Haha.

Lovely, though. That picture of the eyeglasses makes me happy for some reason. Don’t know why!!

Aww! ♥ You are much too sweet, my dear. And I too am very thankful for IFB or else I probably wouldn’t have found you either. <3

Seeing photos like that never fail to make me smile. It’s like the stuff I see on various Tumblr accounts :) The pictures are lovely and so is the weheartit site! :)
