fic prompt: “send your cutest delivery boy” also i love your writing! thanks!
“No way, I am not doing that!” Cyrus protests in vain. 
“May I remind you that you’re the one who said, not moments ago, that, and I quote ‘I can totally handle dares! In fact, give me one right now, I won’t back out this time no matter what’,” Buffy imitates pointedly. 
Cyrus groans, knowing that his attempts are futile but not quite willing to give in yet. He flops backward, head bouncing against one of the many fluffy pillows encasing the three of them within their homemade sleepover fort. He looks toward Andi pleadingly, but she offers him a slightly apologetic look.
Andi agrees, “That is what you said…”
“Ugh, I just thought you’d give me a less mortifying dare, like ‘Cyrus, go walk outside in the snow barefoot’ or ‘Cyrus, lick the floor’–”
“You think licking the floor is less mortifying than this?!” Buffy interrupts. 
“–The point is, this is absolutely terrifying!”
Sighing, Buffy scoots closer to him, propping him back up so they can talk. “You don’t have to do this dare you know.”
Cyrus tucks his knees into his chest. “Yeah, I know. But I want to, I need to actually fulfill one dare in Truth or Dare in my entire life, and this is it.”
“Sometimes they ignore silly requests, you know,” Andi attempts to comfort him. 
Cyrus nods, trying to convince himself of the same thing. “Yeah, no, you’re right. It will be fine. It will be totally, completely, 100% fine.” He lets out a deep breath and holds out his hand. “Ok, I’m ready.”
Truth or Dare has been a long tradition during Andi, Buffy, and Cyrus’s monthly sleepovers. They’ll always start with a movie with buttery popcorn and sodas before moving into a chain of gossiping and catching up. Then, it eventually leads silly party games such as Truth or Dare that lead to even more confessions and deep feelings. Of course, Cyrus being Cyrus, he never wants to pick dare. The rare times he has, he’s chickened out. This time, though, he’s determined not to, despite the potential embarrassing result of Buffy’s dare. Out of all the things she had to dare him, it had to be ordering a pizza and requesting them to send their cutest delivery boy. 
At least he’d be guaranteed a pizza out of it to drown his sorrows in afterwards. 
Hands shaking, Cyrus types in all the information before finally getting to the special requests section. His fingers hesitate over the keyboard before he finally types in, “Send you’re cutest delivery boy.”
Before he can change his mind, Cyrus quickly confirms his order, therefore sending the message along with it. Andi and Buffy squeal, hugging him on both sides. 
“You did it! You completed your first dare,” Andi celebrates, shaking his shoulder. “How does it feel?!”
“Nerve-wracking,” Cyrus laughs. “But also, I think I feel more energetic? More confident, almost.”
“That’s called adrenaline,” Buffy teases. “But you’re not quite done with the dare yet, you know. You still have to answer the door when it comes.”
Cyrus balks, not having thought so far ahead. He drops his head into his hands with a resonating groan. “This is going to be so embarrassing!”
“Hey, who knows, maybe it will be like your Prince Charming waiting at your doorstep.”
They all descend into snickers. Despite Cyrus’s anxiousness about the dare, he also feels lighter knowing that he was able to accomplish this. These sleepovers are certainly places where the three of them get to know each other better than they could have impossibly imagined as well as themselves. So many things have become reality because of sleepover nights. Cyrus first realized he was gay at one of their sleepover nights when Buffy and Andi told him about the girl who had such an obvious crush on him who should have been attractive to any boy. Later, his thoughts were only confirmed as they watched a movie and the only person he could pay attention to was the young male actor. Buffy figured out she was going to be team captain of the basket-ball team at their high school at one of their slumber parties, leading to endless squealing and celebrating. Even Andi learned of her acceptance of one of her art pieces into a local gallery for the month. In other words, their slumber parties tended to be revolutionary. 
Too soon, Cyrus hears the telltale sign of a car pulling into the driveway and headlights flashing through the windows. A few seconds later, there’s a patterned knock on the door. Cyrus gulps, delaying the inevitable as long as possible before finally getting his wallet and standing up with a few pushes from his friends. 
He’s not sure what to expect when he opens the front door, but it definitely isn’t the gorgeous blonde boy standing before him. He expected that they would send someone attractive sure, but this boy is more than that. He’s absolutely radiant, with floppy hair hanging every which way, a long, slender jawline, vibrant green eyes, and a crooked smile with the cutest dimples. Unfortunately, Cyrus’s mouth moves faster than his brain, as he can’t stop the next words that come out of his mouth:
“You really are cute,” he stammers with wide eyes and a parted mouth. Then, as his mind catches up, he blushes so bright that he worries it’s permanently stained into his skin. “Wait, I-I didn’t mean to say that out loud, oh my god--I’m so sorry--”
“I didn’t expect someone as cute as you, either,” the delivery boy responds boldly. 
Cyrus vaguely registers his friends whispering excitedly to themselves in the background, but all his focus is on the boy in front of him holding the box of pizza with a dazzling smile. 
“W-wait, what? Y-you think I’m cute?” 
The boy smiles, “Cyrus, right?”
“How did you know that?”
“It was on your order,” the boy explains with an unwavering smile. 
Cyrus blushes even brighter red, if possible. “Oh, duh, of course.”
The boy gets out a pen from his front pocket, scribbling something down quickly before handing Cyrus the box and his receipt. Cyrus takes it, too overwhelmed to say anything intelligent. 
“I hope you enjoy the pizza,” he smiles, getting ready to head back out to his car. 
“Wait! Your tip!” Cyrus calls out before he gets too far. 
The boy shakes his head. “Meeting you was enough for me.”
Then, without another word, he hops into his car and heads down the street. Meanwhile, Cyrus is stuck on his front porch, trying to register the encounter that he just had. The second Andi and Buffy hear the car drive away, they run out to him with matching grins. 
“Cyrus! I can’t believe that just happened,” Andi gasps. 
“Trust me, I know.”
Suddenly, scribbles of blue ink on his receipt taped to the pizza box catches his attention. He squints, looking at it under the dimly lit porch lights. It says: Call Me, with a phone number and a signature. TJ.
Cyrus beams, finger running over the smudged letters. Maybe dares aren’t so bad after all.

"Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional"
-Haruki Murakami
Mon, Oct 19 - 5:17am [watching Guys and Dolls high (humor hasn't changes much lol). I'm actually enjoying the movie because:
1. I can SEE them acting (that's not how they would be irl)
the "good" acting vs. the "bad" acting. Marlon Brando vs. the "background people" [they have their lived their own lives that they've told their kids about and being in that movie was just part of it (the part they played in the movie)]
2. Themes of/ in life
The romanticized notion of what the 1950, or any other decade, "should" be like looking back (in comparison to "now") and what it was like during the time (in contrast to previous decades), for what it really is, a continuum of themes, especially love (even when handed societal ideals, it still seems like the majority of us haven't got it figured out)
3. I'm actively sympathizing with the characters, not just passively watching them only picking up on major themes or deeper meanings when prompted by their acting or dramatics. I feel true empathy
4. I finally understand this quote, not just superficially comprehend
+
5. Looking back, even now as I'm typing this, I won't resonate with this posts original message like when I initially thought the thoughts that led me to write this it (words hold power, but lose their original meaning over time <-like this, "future me" will comprehend, but not fully understand like this me does in this moment, that moment)
6. I forgot, I remembered, I forgot again. I remember: life is like a imitates art, art imitates life [this is only part of what I remembered]
+
7. I remembered the other part. It was an example lol. My posts would not be nearly as interesting if the tags were organized scrutinizeingly [like they were when I first started posting -the need to control causes tension], such is life

Understanding Translation Quotes
The top to bottom investigation of Art of Translation requests more consideration not on the grounds that it clears route for worldwide communication and offers a fantastic chance to experience socio-social study of different dialects and their written works yet additionally offers a chance to set up some sort of significance it has in the examination and territory of Literary Criticism. Interpretation Studies can securely be incorporated as a significant class in the area of Literary Criticism since interpretation is a workmanship inciting to peep into the enhanced lingual, social and artistic substance of a source language and in this way featuring/valuing the pith and amenities of the writing of that specific deciphered language. With regards to Indian Studies, keeping in see the multilingual and pluristic social nature of our country,translation has a significant task to carry out. It is through interpretation that we can investigate the rich legacy of India as one incorporated unit and feel pleased with our social heritage. 
Tumblr media
The pertinence of interpretation as multifaceted and a multidimensional action and its worldwide significance as a socio-social extension between nations has become throughout the years. In the present day conditions when things are quick pushing forward globally,not just nations and social orders need to interface with one another intently, yet people also need to have contact with individuals from different networks/social orders that are spread over various pieces of the nation/world. So as to take into account these requirements interpretation has turned into a significant movement that fulfills individual, cultural and national needs.
It's implied that the essentialness and importance of interpretation in our day by day life is multidimensional and broad. It is through interpretation we think pretty much every one of the advancements in correspondence and innovation and stay informed concerning the most recent revelations in the different fields of information, and furthermore approach through interpretation to the writing of a few dialects and to the various occasions occurring on the planet. India has had close connections with antiquated civilisations, for example, Greek, Egyptian and Chinese. 
This intuitive relationship would have been incomprehensible without the learning of the different dialects spoken by the various networks and countries. This is the means by which individuals understood the significance of interpretation quite a while in the past. Unnecessary to mentiuon here that the pertinence and significance of interpretation has expanded extraordinarily in the present quick evolving world. Today with the developing pizzazz for learning in human personalities there is an incredible need of interpretation in the fields of instruction, science and innovation, mass correspondence, exchange and business, writing, religion, the travel industry, and so on.
Tumblr media
Characterizing Translation
Extensively speaking,translation turns a book of source language(SL) into a right and reasonable variant of objective language(TL)without losing the recommendation of the first. Numerous individuals believe that being bilingual is all that is should have been an interpreter. That isn't valid. Being bilingual is a significant prerequisite,no question, however interpretation aptitudes are assembled and created based on one's own arduous informative and composing encounters in both the dialects. In actuality interpretation is a procedure dependent on the hypothesis of separating the importance of a book from its present structure and replicate that with various type of a subsequent language.
Expectedly, it is recommended that interpreters should meet three prerequisites, to be specific: 1) Familiarity with the source language, 2) Familiarity with the objective language, and 3) Familiarity with the topic to play out the activity effectively. In view of this idea, the interpreter finds the significance behind the structures in the source language (SL) and gives a valiant effort to replicate a similar importance in the objective language (TL) utilizing the TL structures and structures as far as he could possibly know. Normally and as far as anyone knows what changes is the structure and the code and what ought to stay unaltered is the significance and the message (Larson, 1984).Therefore, one may recognize the most well-known meaning of interpretation, i.e., the choice of the closest proportionate for a language unit in the SL in an objective language.
PCs are now being utilized to make an interpretation of one language into another, however people are as yet engaged with the procedure either through pre-composing or post-altering. It is extremely unlikely that a PC can ever have the option to interpret dialects the manner in which an individual could since language utilizes analogy/symbolism to pass on a specific importance. Interpreting is more than just looking into a couple of words in a lexicon. A quality interpretation requires an intensive learning of both the source language and the objective language.
Tumblr media
Interpretation Theory, Practice and Process
Fruitful interpretation is demonstrative of how intently it satisfies the hopes as: duplicating precisely with respect to as conceivable the significance of the source text,using common types of the receptor/target language in such a route as is fitting to the sort of content being deciphered and communicating all parts of the importance intently and promptly reasonable to the target group/reader.Technically, interpretation is a procedure to digest the significance of a book from its present structures and imitate that importance in various types of another dialect. Interpretation has now been perceived as a free field of study. The interpreter can be said to be the central component during the time spent interpretation. 
The essayist/writer turns into the middle, for whatever he composes will be conclusive, and no two interpreters decipher a book similarly. It is genegally accepted that an author to know the complexities of the TL wherein he may wish to interpret. In actuality, it isn't the author of the SL content who requests that somebody make an interpretation of his works into the TL; it is essentially the enthusiasm of the individual interpreter which prompts him to make an interpretation of a work into his first language. An effective interpreter is definitely not a mechanical interpreter of a book however is inventive too. 
We may state that he is a co-maker of the TL content. . Truth be told, for an interpreter information of at least two dialects is fundamental. This includes not just a working learning of two distinct dialects yet in addition the information of two etymological frameworks as likewise their writing and culture.Such interpreters have been believed to have different characteristics which we will quickly talk about later.

2 entries, 1 post-logged (long post)
today my friend sat down to me just before class started, looked me in the eyes and said "i was talking to my friend about lit and arts in general. why aren't you taking e lit?" and to this friend i had never mentioned anything about lit before. 
then ensued the long conversation over break about why i didn't take lit and it was different because for once it wasn't about why i took psych. we concluded that there really wasn't a reason why, some things just end up like that. 
"ok i just felt prompted to tell you that you’d make a very good vessel for what lit tackles through acads, and that we need people who are able to learn about these mindsets without being completely influenced by the systems it's being communicated through (in my head: wat. we spoke 5 times. maybe more. slightly.) - i mean psych, lit, sociology. absorbing content is easy-" 
 "it's not-" 
*talks over me* "but knowing what and how things are influencing you, and communicating them clearly to other people is not easy.”
“i don’t-”
“i think we tend to underestimate what grace gives to us just because we always had it. are you doing well in psych?" 
"sharing what you have before you even do your masters, the passion and love that you have for lit and how it affects others, i think it'll add value to a lot of lives. we need these conversations." i wouldn't type myself as an academic, or as a content creator. but i would type myself as a communicator - a very traumatised one sure, but still. 
been having a lot of these convos lately, which is why i feel like posting about them, from the least of them all- weiting. "how can you be so selective about who you share your thoughts with? (we were talking about langleav and the effects of her writing going from tumblr to mainstream audiences) don't you think they're important?" (i do.) "don't you think you should share them with as many people as possible even if they don't want to hear, especially if not knowing will cost them?" (i don't believe in that, in shoving opinions down people's throats or fighting to convince them of something. if they don’t want to get it, they won’t.) "but not knowing could hurt them!" (again, if they don’t want to get it, they won’t. i also have a pet peeve for narrow minded assholes. and so asides from a very select few people that i feel i rly need to MAKE them see, like u, c, s, i don't care. and things affect different people in different ways. some people don’t need to hear what others need to. but if ppl were rly bothered tho, all they need to do is ask. i will share. it’s what i’ve been doing for like, life. i guess the only difference is how much i share.) "and what does that depend on?" (on how much i think they can handle. friendly reminder: NMA.) 
i miss the academic rigour of writing a lit paper instead of my quarter-hearted rambles on here after reading a book, and i don't want the critical readings on odyssey/genesis/john to be the highest point in my lit career tbvh. (i miss dr yeoh.) but i think the lesson goes beyond that. i think it goes beyond learning about yourself to learning what you have been given. and i think i’ve been running from what i’ve been given for a very long time - i don't even dare to mention it. i’m scared? of my own gifts that God’s given to me? because i don’t know how to use it? i’m scared of using it wrongly??? /facepalm gonna just use the ones i’m comfortable with first i guess.
(she tells me about her dying friend who took NTU lit and who shared her love for the written word and its effects all the way till her last breath. I think about what life could've been if i took up NTU's offer. I think about what the dean had said. I think about what could've been if i chose to major in lit instead. i think about a graveyard of missed opportunities- not just lit. people, too. i think about what kind of conversations i would be having now. “positive psych is the best thing that happened to me in my entire uni life. this one module made all the other abnormal, disorder, trauma psych worth it, and balanced out grp dynamics & human performance.” “is it you having cognitive dissonance right now?” “eh, PTSD etiology is like that one meh.” “i’m pretty sure poker doesn’t count as a ritual.” “so just to clarify this doesn’t involve religious theology right, i confused ah.” “oh my god kids are so dumb.” “omg we developed so fast?!” “marriage is a nightmare” “divorce is a nightmare” “drug use is a nightmare” “depression is a nightmare” “anxiety sucks” “CBT, CBT, CBT. CBT everything also can use right!” “dude, what kind of attachment did you have to your main caregiver?” “can we use this to manipulate people?” “why are our brain neurons like that” “so we imitate more than monkeys do? wtf these mirror cells!!!!” “is anger justifiable?” “what are emotions? when do they become functional?” “should a disorder result in lighter law sentences?” “we are. truly. what we think.” looking back, I STUDIED A SHITLOAD FOR PSYCH but what do i even remember. how much content did i even cram omg.) 
but this is not a post about lit or psych, even though i’m pretty much rambling about lit & psych at this point. this is a post about learning, and i’d like to remind myself of that. i don’t regret taking psych, because without the courses i wouldn’t search it on my own. if i took lit, it’d have been lit everywhere all day err day. i might have gotten sick of it. psych gives lit dimension. it might seem weird to reblog quotes from a dead person, but she inspired me a little, and so i will. 
i saw prof camilo today and he did a double-take, but i had my “don’t talk 2 me” face on and i REGRET because he SINGLE HANDEDLY saved my GPA on a mod i DIDN’T EVEN LIKE. 
post-logged post 
in the spirit of vday i'd like to share a v impt lesson some1 taught me over drinkz
