Bad play on these hands?

Hi everybody,
this is my first post, although i have visited these forums for quite a while.I have been playing poker for several months now and everything has gone well so far. The last 2 weeks however i have suffered a huge downswing and i am not confident with my play anymore. I feel i misplace my aggression and start calling with weak hands... Well i'm not really sure about that.I can't seem to see wether a play is good or bad anymore,i'm totally unconfident!!! So i decided to post some hands here to read your comments on my play.

Here comes the first hand. Both opponents are kinda loose preflop and passive postflop.
