Ruslana Korshunova, Supermodel, Dies In Fall
Jumping seems like such a painful way to die full of desperation. What i think is she would probably still be in Kazakhstan if she hadn't been so beautiful. I really hope she didn’t do it, this is just sad.
You can see a tribute video made by her fans here.
The signs !?

Ruslana Korshunova's Blog Notes
It hurts if someone took a part of me, mercilessly tore it out, stomped all over it…threw it out. ( Jan 1)
If I am for others, then who is for me? And if I am for myself, then what am I for? ( Jan 30)
A girl once asked a guy, does he think she is cute. He said no. She asked, would he want to be with her forever, and he said no. Then she asked him, if I left, would you cry and his answer was no. She heard enough. She turned around, to leave, tears running down her face. The guy took her hand and said, “You are not cute, you are beautiful. I don’t want to be with you forever, I HAVE to. And I would not cry, if you left, I would die. (Mar 6)
I know what is it..I know why my other relationship didn’t work out..cos I’m unpredictable…why r u afraid of it..? (Mar 11)
Why, sooner or later, love will die. What is even worst is if it will end earlier for my partner than for me.
It really hurts when someone stops loving you but you continue to love. (Mar 18)
