Everyone wakes up at some point in their short lives. For Blair, it was age twelve. his parents, married of ten years, decided to divorce, Blair realized he was attracted to other boys, and learned that he was born out of wedlock; he also discovered he wouldn't have to go to the Church of Latter Day Saints any longer.

Three years later he would attempt suicide after realizing that turning to a pagan nature-orientated faith and keeping his changing sexuality to himself were not enough to keep him breathing. A lecture from a father and the intervention of an unaware, but honest and endearing mother would keep him from ever cutting too deep again.

At age seventeen, in the last days of June 2005, Blair's mother would suffer a heart attack in the middle of the night, a terror he would relive every night after. She passed away on the fourth of July after suffering a week-long coma. Add to this tragedy, the lifelong endeavor of living out and proud to his friends and to strangers in the Burleson Independent School District south of Fort Worth, affectionately seen as the buckle of the bible belt, enduring the ignorant embrace of foul mouthed locals and careless administrations. He would see no sympathy from staff since his mother passed in summer. No one noticed, no one cared enough.

At age eighteen, on his birthday, Blair would be expelled from BHS for a single seed of marijuana found under the passenger seat. He would go through a rigorous school known as Right Turn Discipline Center at the Crossroads facility right down the very road of Lynnewood Avenue that Blair lived on his entire life. Some 27 days later, Blair would be releaed for good behavior and a request to attend his prom. Unable to take the required courses he would have normally taken at BHS, Blair was doomed not to graduate with the students he'd gone to school with since kindergarten. Two months at Crossroads High School earned Blair all the credits he needed and he would graduate December 2006.

Between February of 2008 and January 2010, Blair would lose three of his closest friends to the fate that awaits all living creatures. Such an influence of death can devastate a person into an extremely depressive state, but having suffered through with those closest to him, Blair can see the flicker of light left in his life. Having worked on many projects since his defining age of 12 which decided his sexuality, his faith, his identity, and even his destiny, Blair is prepared to take over the world and prove that even the underdog can change the future, can manipulate this oppressive world into an open-minded and open-hearted one that isn't laced with old traditions of hatred and ignorance, but embraces one love for everyone.
