I like that they are showing more of you on the show, you kinda remind me of Jeff LOL :-D

I hope for you the best. You seem like a hard worker. Remember that those friends who are enjoying themselves will not have the great future that you will have. Keep at it with Jeff, he will teach you more than you can learn in school! Good Luck!

You are adorable and I appreciate the fact that you know how blessed you are to be learning from someone like Jeff. Sarah thinks she can mail in the work because she's "family" and Jenni really just wants to be a comedian, rapper, or actress. Jett hasn't shown any ambition I've see yet. You and Zoila are my favorites.

LOL! love ur blog..and really loved seeing more of u on the show!

Trace, I love you on this show! I think although you're quiet you're HILARIOUS! Do not give up what you love doing. Learn all you can from working with Jeff. I know you'll have a great future in that business. Take Care!

P.S. I also love your sense of style!

I love you on the show and feel your pain, I work for a man who can be just like Jeff, we have our moments but at the end of the day I am happy to have a great job with great people! Keep up the great work!

Loved the episode Trace!, I'm so glad Jeff is letting you spread your wings a bit. Its not easy meeting with the masses and projecting yourself, but the more you do the more people will respond to you and the easier(hugs aside) it will become for you to let down your guard a little. You are very talented and I am sure you will have a long career in design. Cheers, Matt.

I think you have a great future ahead of you. It must be hard putting up with Jeff but, it will pay off in the end.

You are great! I'm so glad you are in the show more this year. I love all of your facial expressions! I would love for you to design any space for me and my family. Good luck to you. I'm sure you will have a successful career in the design business.

TRACE! NO SHORT SHORTS BUT LOVED THE SKINNY JEANS! YOUR STILL IS TOOO DELISH. P.S. I WAS I LITTLE SKEEVED WHEN THE LADY WAS HUGGING YOU TOO!

Hi Trace, Learn as much as you can from Jeff, even he can be a pain in the *#@. It will pay off in the end.

What model are the ray bans you were wearing when you and Jeff were riding in a car? I love those sunglasses and want a pair so bad!

Hi Trace! You're sort of the "stealth cast member" on the show, but you have really grown on me! You're a great foil for Jeff, and I love your facial expressions when he goes off on his crazy tangents. However, he sees a lot in you, and this season I am starting to see it, too. He wouldn't have hired you if you were not full of potential, so soak up the experience, learn all you can, and you will have an amazing future. xoxo Shelley

LOVE YOU! But not in the hand holding hugs kind of way!! You so rock and you crack me up with your young awkwardness!!! Can't wait to see more of you this season :)

Tracie. Get over the personal space! Once you get a BF, you will open up. Just suck it up, the old ladies love guys like us and trust us, we can tell them anything and they go with it (we are their Queen Mary's). Get the experience with Jeff, cause when he is retired in Fort Lauderdale with all the other GSC (Gay Senionr Citizens) you can take all his clients from him!

OOH and those short shorts! No black, get some color!

Hey Tracey :) I appreciate your desire for personal space but it was quite sweet to see all you guys hug Barb. She's wacky, but definitely seemed like a riot and a nice person. I'm not super huggy either, but sometimes it's nice to have an affectionate connection with someone. Jeff was truly testing you that day at Bob and Barb's and I think you did pretty well! As far as urinating in plastic containers? Well, we all have to do some things at work we don't want to-your boss' requests are just a litle more strange than most. I hope you continue to enjoy your job and have continued success. You seem to have a real passion for what you do, as well as talent. The fact that Jeff has so much faith in you is a testament to that. Thanks for the entertainment!

You are so funny!

Trace, ur sooo HOTT!!! Too bad ur not straight - I's own u, hee-hee-hee :) Anyway, ur totally amazaballs, all the best to you... Cheers!

Need to see more of you.

Trace;

deal with your personal space issues at your own pace. Do not let anyone here or in your world tell you to suck it up or get over it. I was like you at your age and it took me a long time to get past it. I had to drink in order to feel comfortable in a crowd. When people stood near me talking and moved closer I would move away without realizing I moved away. It's your deal. Your world and when you are ready, you'll feel comfortable enough to give hugs and be in the moment with strangers.. Peace to you and you are an amazingly beautiful soul outside and most especially inside..

Hi Trace, I luv the fact that you appreciate the experiance Jeff is giving you and I'm sure he appreciates your insight on projects he has undertaken. I luv the show and I'm soo glad they're showing more of you. You and Jenni are my favs!

You are in a great position in your life... especially in this economy. I know you are thankful for that. You are young and bright and certainly have the energy to balance work and fun time - though it may seem tough...I get that. Take advantage of what you are offered in life! HUGE Flipping Out fan...Love seeing you on the show...
