Jake, this STILL makes me sob every time. I love that is reprises "this is your life." I am so sad that this is over. :(. It has been such a big part of my life. I can't thank you enough for how much this series has done for me. <3.

[clooimx]

Ok so.. I totally didn't notice who was in this clip... but seeing Morgan Karr anf Jay Johnson dancing in the background made me smile.

Missing TBD terribly!

[worldwide156]

[GreenMusicGirl10]

That's Adam Wachter, he's the music coordinator for the show and although he hasn't had much screen time, he's a big part of TBD
