Yes because she seems to want to still be involved in the sport and I want her to.
No because shes taking a break, and seems to be enjoying her life without the training.

Over all, I have no idea.

Where's the option for "Honestly not a clue?"

I really don't know. She might, and she might not. I think we'll find out for sure by the start of next year...if she was making a run for Rotterdam, she would announce her intentions good and early so she would have ample time to prepare, unlike this year.

On the News thread someone commented on her arms looking more toned than usual in a recent photo, and that might mean she was back in training. I certainly hope so! She really should specialise though. I can't see the point of her trying to take AA again, she should really concentrate on getting bars and beam medals IMO.

I'm not really feeling this dress but she looks beautiful otherwise.

I wish she would stop doing so many appearances and fashion things and train instead. She can always do that after the next Olympics! I voted yes though because I want her to come back.

Hate the dress. It looks like two different dresses sewn together.

I think Nastia is coming back. If she wasn't I doubt she would have tried for Worlds. Also she probably would have announced her retirement by now. Nastia has had enough time to decide if she wants to continue since she did a few competitions and experienced the disappointment of not being ready for Worlds. This setback would probably push her in the direction of wanting to compete or retire. I don't follow her personal appearrances so I don't know if she's doing too much. Training part-time, if that's what she's doing, is better than not training at all. With the Olympics being just 5 gymnasts I don't think it would be good to focus on just 2 events. I wouldn't be shocked if Nastia gave up vault since it's her weak event.
