karen from “mean girls” did that.
i fully believed her crazy.

i’ve been wanting to watch the housemaid since it came out.
i got invited to the screening last november,
but i couldn’t make it due to reasons beyond my control.
i was devastated i couldn’t attend that day,
but i wasn’t supposed to see it until now.

well,
last night.

as i was watching it,
two things crossed my mind.
one:

Brandon Sklenar is fine AF.

i was fully distracted by the smile,
the biceps,
the tank tops,
and how i’d let that 6’2 white wolf palm my cheeks like a basketball.

but then there was the second thought…

people will invite you into their lives,
their homes,
their spaces and everything feels calm on the surface.
everything feels fine until the mask starts chipping away.

…and the wild part is,
you don’t even realize it until you’re already in too deep.
take it from me.

i’ve been learning that lately,
but it has been a theme in my life.
my discretion was off in some situations due to attractiveness,
the honeymoon phase,
or the “i’m going to help you…” but the “crazy” was silent in all those situations.

i just told my friend the other day i saw the mask chipping the first day i got here.
sometimes,
it’s not you but it’s the environment you stepped into,
and by the time you realize what was under the surface:

you’re already trapped and it’s gonna take strategy to get out.

Foxhole,
this movie is definitely one to check out.
not just for the story but for the reminder,
because it made me think about how many situations have we walked into…

…not realizing what we were stepping into.

lowkey: there are other messages throughout the movie,
but fonting it will give it away.
