Why do I keep doing stuff for you

Fine Arts has become the very most hated thing in my mind.  It is not even because it is not fun to be in the competition.  It is just the stuff that leads up to it and how it has become basically void of God all together in my church.  We have always done practices from 1:30-4 in the past and today I figured would be no different.  So I went to my new church in Wallingford and afterwards Torrie had to go to work so I figured I would just go with her to the mall (where she works) and then see if someone could pick me up there.  I called Jonna, one of the adults involved in Fine Arts and asked her if she could pick me up, and all of a sudden I get this attitude because "we have always had practice start at one."  She did agree to do it though.  So after I called her, about five minutes later I get a call from my youth pastor, Dan, telling me "we have always had practice at one."  So the repition was the second thing that annoyed me.  When Torrie and I got to the mall I said good-bye to her because I wasn't going to see her  again until next weekend and she had to get to work.  Another five minutes later Jonna was there to pick me up.  As soon as I got in the car she gave me that attitude of "you were wrong and I want you to know that good and well."  So as we started driving she sort of actually tried to keep things calm because she knew that I was a bit pissed.  I told her that I was definitely told to be there at 1:30 the week before because I was with Torrie when I was told this and she remembered me saying 1:30.  Jonna said that there was no way she told me 1:30 so I was just like whatever.  After that I told her that it really annoyed me that I was being expected to jump through hoops for it when I was never in it this year out of my want to do it.  Dan begged me to do it last summer when we were working on a video for the church, and that I was really tempted to quit now.  She told me that I was in the right if I didn't keep with it because I shouldn't be doing it if I don't want to, especially now that I don't go to the church anymore.  I told her that it is basically impossible for me to get there for one because my new church gets out at like 12:15 or 12:30 and she, sort of just trying to change the topic because she thought it wasn't her place to talk to me about it, asked me what the new church was like and I told her that it was a great church with people who are legitimate about their faith.  She seemed understanding because no one can deny the fakeness of my old church.  I know that it is something that comes with all churches but this was way to much and it was bad.  When I did get there Dan stayed quiet towards me because he knew that I would walk out if he tried to give me crap, but everyone else was being such jerks about it regardless of it being their place to or not.  I am so sick of people who are ungrateful.
