[/ul] history
She stared at the crumbling rocks before her and smiled. Moss clung to the craggy edges of rocks, as if it was the only thing keeping the building from falling apart. In the distance, a wave cracked against a torn cliff. Her tutors had wanted her to attend a more well-known university such as Oxford or even the american Harvard. But Anika couldn't subscribe herself to fill the role of the typical scholar. She couldn't fit herself into any mold. No, Academie d'Ourvard was her new home. It was as if the wind that tangled around her hair, was loosening any remaining threads that kept her in place.
She was born in Prague to Robert Boehm, an American Air Force Colonel with Czech heritage and Eliska Ruzika-Boehm, a Czech teacher Robert had met while he was stationed near Prague. Unfortunately, Eliska died in a car accident when Anika was only two. She doesn't remember anything of her mother, though she looks at the photographs and pretends she remembers the memories that surrounded their faded smiles.
She grew up amongst the countries of Europe, first traveling with her father as they moved from place to place, but then she continued of her own accord when her father was transferred to America. She lived a nomadic life, being tutored as she traveled from the Carpathians to the Riviera. Her life was an unpredictable one - that which she made sure stayed that way. But her summers were kept for the Ashford family.
They were old family friends, and she thought of them as her own. She grew up with Daniel Ashford, one of the few people who didn't mind her erratic ways - she thoroughly enjoyed the bitter teasing they had grown up throwing at each other. Although she has always adored her time with the Ashford's, she has never spent more than a summer in one place. She understands that to keep her freedom, she'd have to attend university. But the Academie can't keep her locked within it's stone walls. And nothing or no one will tie her down.
if you could be anywhere, where would you be? "On a train, crisscrossing along the Alps or through the fields of Provence. Anywhere. But not by plane. If you're going to travel anywhere in Europe, it has to be by train.
