Karen woke up half an hour before her alarm. It was still dark out, and the street lights outside cast striped shadows on the walls. Beeping garbage trucks were careening down the street, but she barely noticed the commotion. Unusually, she hopped right out of bed. Today, her school's annual theater festival was to begin, and it was the highlight of her year. As she showered, Karen recite the entire first act of Romeo and Juliet — not just her own lines but all the other actors' as well . What details does the third-person perspective give us that Karen's character barely notices?

She didn't notice how excited she was, and how differently she was acting than she usually did.
