Personal History

Dial was born in 2363 on Bolias. It was the typical life of a Bolian child born on the small colony. At the age of 4 she started to be educated in general. When she was 10, it was the first time for her to decide of her own what she wanted to study next. She discussed for a quite long time with her parents about what would be the consequences of her decision. As her interests were ranging far, she wanted as many courses as possible. She didn't have much free time during these years and felt soon isolated. When she had the chance to change her selection of courses, she exchanged some courses for extracurricular activities where she found new friends.

During her teenage years she found her interest in medicine and rather sooner than later a very special interest in medicine of alien peoples. Therefore Starfleet became a goal in her life. She knew all about how Starfleet Academy chose its recruits. Therefore she studied hard in all the subjects that she could be tested in before she would be allowed to enter Academy. But in the meanwhile her parents had become sick and old. She and Boe had to care for all her siblings. Dial realized that she wouldn't be able to apply for Starfleet Academy at the age of 18.

At the age of 19 she demanded of both her brother, Boe, as well as her parents to leave. All of them neglected her wish saying that there was too much work to be done. Dial stayed one year but felt constantly more blue and unhappy. When her parents saw how much she suffered from not being allowed to leave they had a talk with her. It was just in time for if she wanted to join Academy with 20 years she needed leave still in 2382. Elsewise she wouldn't have made it in time to reach Earth. At the end of the discussion her parents allowed her to leave with their permission. They agreed that Boe, Saja and Taja were old enough to care for themselves and ther little brother, Oak.

Only Boe was angry at her for the decision. He found it a bit selfish to leave him with so much to worry about. He couldn't attend any kind of school any more for he had to tidy up the family's home, be Oak's nanny and do all repairments in the house. Boe had thought about a Starfleet Career for himself, but now all these hopes were crushed. He didn't even bid farewell to her sister when she left for Starfleet Academy.

Dial's arrival on Earth was weird. All the different species in San Fransisco were new to her and though she had studied their anatomy and illnesses, she realized for the first time how many species were part of the Federation. Although it was strange and new to her, she was amazed. At Academy she learnt even more species and became friends with Efrosians, Humans, Denobulans and many others. As during her teenage years she enjoyed many extra curricular activities with her friends and even started to have fun in sport. But her main interest laid still in interesting debates about history, politics and literature. She also joined some sort of Academy press that collected excellent Students' essays and published them. Dial herself wrote some essays in her free time but she was most proud of an article about the interstellar postwar society after the Dominion War.

While she studied in San Fransisco, she spent her first semester breaks at a medical facility in Florence. Although she did her best, she dropped this after the 3rd Semester because she wanted to spend more time with her friends. In the end, the offer of the Florentine Institute was gone. Now she had no chance to promote with a PhD and was forced to start her career as a Nurse. At least, she spent the Cadet Cruise with her Academy friends.
