Call Me Coffee Girl

Life as usual: researching for TOK project and not working, because I'm done all I can do until I get home; deep in the clutches of rehearsing for Jekyll and Hyde (being a tenor is a joy and a pain at the same time); so much work to do, so little time; alternating between extreme lethargy and extreme energy; not doing Spanish homework. C'est la vie. [Note: I do not take French.]

Why is it that no matter what I do, I always wind up doing everything and getting nothing in return? Like RMBC today, when I did both VCR operator and powerpoint slides (two separate jopbs that need to be done at the same time), only to have Mr. Rodney, our AV guy, complain at me for breaking the VCR (which I did not do; it's just old and crappy). -Sigh-

On the up side, I've been modelling for a painting for Shagun for her IB Art project. It's really cool; a multimedia 3-D thing, where my arm and a garland of flowers are actually coming out of the canvas. It even looks like me! And she managed to turn the clothes I had been wearing when I first modelled for her (one of my racerback tank tops) into a really cool dress. I am reminded that I really want a sewing machine, because sometimes I really want to make clothes for myself.

I spend a lot of time these days feeling underappreciated, but I'll get over it. Yesterday I even did the coffee run for Ms. Krebs and Mr. Frezzo before rehearsal (there's a Starbucks within walking distance, so I walked and ordered three cups of coffee/hot chocolate) and they both said thanks, but I still feel like I do too much sometimes. Or the look that my partner for this project that I'm working on gave me when I handed him the 16 pages of information I found yesterday. The look was a mix of confusion and revulsion: What kind of person does this much work? Eew! Well, not my problem; at least we'll be prepared.
