BIOGRAPHY !

Bas grew up in a household that was ever supportive of whatever he wanted to do, yet his father was always busy. From a very young age, he looked up to his father. Since childhood, Bas had always wanted to become a lawyer like his father. Despite his father always being busy, Basilio spent as much time as he possibly could with his father, which to say was not a ton of time. Still the boy idolized his father. He was always a happy child, someone with a smile on his face and more than once did he get in trouble at school for standing up for someone. At a young age, he learned to filibuster bedtime and use his voice. When people asked what he wanted to be, Bas knew that lawyer was the only right answer.

When Bas came out as trans to his family, he was immediately accepted by everyone. He had always known that he didn't feel like he belonged in his body. Bas remembered his father helping him choose a name and change it. Being in California, Bas didn't have much of a problem with being accepted and was very vocal in the various support groups that he went to for other queer children his age. While figuring out who he was took some time, Bas is proud of the person that he is and the person that he wants to become. He was always happy to have his family's support.

In school, Bas was always one of the top students. Although it was very apparent from a young age that he was ADHD. Often getting lost in the projects he would take on, Bas sometimes went so off topic that he had trouble completing certain assignments. Things got a lot easier for him when he was put on medication. Bas never finished at the top of his class in high school, he did well enough to get into Yale. Coming from a family who valued hard work, he knew that he was set. Even if he was scared of moving away, Bas knew it was what was best for his future career. College was good for him... until it wasn't. Bas always had the idea that he was going to get his bachelor's degree and then go to law school.

Unfortunately, life did not work out that was for Bas. When he got the call that his mother Bas made the decision to come home to help take care of his family. But things at home had changed. His father was now way more closed off than he ever had been. Bas tried to be there for his father, but was only met with a wall. He did everything he could, but nothing really worked. Eventually he made the decision to transfer from Yale to Aurora Bay. He knew that it would probably be a pay cut at the end of the day, but he wanted to be there for his family as much as it hurt to be pushed away by his father. Bas decided to work as a paralegal while putting himself through law school, but instead of living at home, he moved out.

BIOGRAPHY !

Bas grew up in a household that was supportive of whatever he wanted to do. Even though his father was constantly busy, Bas looked up to the man. He looked up to both his parents, going after what they wanted to in their careers and lives. Although he was the youngest of all his siblings, Bas didn't do much to try and hog the attention from his other siblings. He was content to quietly sit in the corner and watch them rough house or do something to get in trouble. But the second that they did get into trouble, he was the first one they came to. From a young age, Bas harbored a natural habit of arguing. Be it standing up for someone that was being bullied to filibustering nap time, Bas was often the center of attention at home for his natural argumentative abilities.

When Bas came out as trans to his family, he was immediately accepted by everyone. He had always known that he didn't feel like he belonged in his body and when he found a forum online with other people his age talking about feeling the same way, he immediately felt better. His family immediately accepted him and helped him to choose and change his name. Being in California, Bas didn't have much of a problem with being accepted and was very vocal in the various support groups that he went to with other queer children his age. While figuring out who he was took some time, Bas is proud of the person that he is and the person that he wants to become. He's incredibly grateful for the support he got from his family members.

In schoo, Bas was always one of the top students. Although it was very apparent from a young age that he was ADHD. Often getting lost in the projects he would take on, Bas sometimes went so off topic that he had trouble completing certain assignments. Things got easier when he was put on medication. Bas wasn't valedictorian of his classmates, but he did finish in the top 2% of his classes and did well enough that he got into Yale. Coming from a family who valued hard work, he knew that he was set. It scared him to move away, but Bas knew it was best for his future career. He left Aurora Bay in the dust, thinking that he'd come home for holidays and the summer, but get opportunities all over the country and finish at law school.

College was good for him... until it wasn't. Bas always had the idea that he was going to get his bachelor's degree and then go to law school. But college was a lot tougher than he expected. He stopped taking his medication correctly, often popping multiple pills to stay up and get his assignments done. He'd stay up two or three days in a row and then crash. Between being on an entirely different coast away from his family and feeling like he was falling behind on assignments, Bas struggled through his first semester of college. He didn't say anything when he got back, feeling like a failure. Although his grades ended up not terrible, they weren't what he expected them to be. He went back to school for his second semester and his problems only got worse. In the end, he realized that it wasn't sustainable. Midway through the semester he called Celine and she encouraged him to drop out and go home.

For the rest of the year he got a job working at Driftwood as a barista until he could figure out what his plan was as well as get himself back on a good track with his medication. When he finally felt in control of everything, he still wanted to be a lawyer and knew he'd have to take a different path to get there. Bas spent two years getting a license to be a paralegal. At twenty two, he got hired by a local law office as a paralegal and transferred to Aurora Bay College to work on becoming a lawyer. He is in his second year of school, while he works full time.
