Alena Kostornaia

Good point about how smart Alena is. I would think she would be smart enough not to over do things and risk further injury no matter what Anna and Sasha are doing. Apparently Sasha does not pull back much she is full throttle even in practice. That is risky business and Russian roulette if you will. I don't think Alena is like that. A lot of her career or any of these girls careers depends on health timing and puberty.

It does make me nervous that she is jumping against the advice of her doctor and coaches though. Poor thing probably misses it so much, these girls just love to jump.
 
I’d really appreciate if someone could give a more accurate translation of Alena’s answers on ask fm, she’s been answering a lot lately and while some of the google translations get the right idea, many of them make no sense at all.
 
I tried my best to translate the most interesting sentences in Alena's latest Ask, but, please, be kind, my language skills are not so good as Alena's :biggrin:

How it comes that vampires always put their make up so well when they can't be seen in the mirror? :scratch2::biggrin:

Wow.....thank you so much for doing this :points:
 
Vampires don't wear make up; that's how they naturally look :-) It is us, the mortals, who need make up to look like them.

Sounds logical. But the hairstyles? They must use their brushes and combs, if you think that they spend the whole day in the coffin, they have to make some preparations before going to town to enjoy some entertainment... :)
 
It seems like she was hacked based on an Instagram story by a Team Tutberidze account

Could be.

I assumed ask.fm is relatively safe, since the owner of the account has full control over answering the questions. But like many teenagers, Kostornaya has many accounts, many or perhaps just one password and might not always be careful with her credentials.

Since you can send in your questions anonymously, she could have received nasty and inappropriate messages too.

I for one didn't like the questions trying to find out where she lives and at what hour by which line and stations of Metro she travels. She even wrote something like 'meet me up at Khrustalniy, you can find its address in the telephone directory'.
Those are unsafe things to say or post in her position I would say.

Like we find out dialy on some of those rotten Youtube channels, private conversation, live streams are stolen and abused, ripped out of context and used to discredit the skater and/or attack others. Alyona already has had bad experiences with this.

She may be the chatterbox at the rink but so far she has been very smart about answering any questions about her team mates and trainers.
Alyona is clever and we should respect her privacy and any decision made by or for her with respect to maintain relative silence on her social media.

The vampire and ice palaces saga is fun and inexhaustible, just like years before. :biggrin:
