user49043: I am fairly new to FASTLED programming and am looking to make my entire LED strip blink at the same time. Similar to the Example Sketch "Blink" however all 30 of my LEDS. I might just be having a temporary mind derp right now but I cant figure it out. 

user27653: FastLED has a function called fill_solid() which will change the color of an indicated range of LEDs in a strip.
From https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/wiki/Controlling-leds#set-rgb-color

use new 'fill_solid', telling it to fill just one led. (v2) Note that
  this is a pretty silly way to set one pixel, but it lets us illustrate
  the existence of fill_solid, a new convenience function the library
  provides.
fill_solid( &(leds[i]), 1 /*number of leds*/, CRGB( 255, 68, 221) )


For your case, you want to change the color of all LEDS, so you would call:
fill_solid(leds, NUM_OF_LEDS, CRGB::Red);

To turn them back off, you would change the color to CRGB::Black
