Baby Mine
As promised, look what I found at my mom’s tonight! XD
Mind-blowing rendition of Swan Lake by a Chinese ballerina. Watch the whole clip. (via Kottke).
This is extraordinary and surely takes an incredible amount of talent and discipline to perform. However, call me a traditionalist, but I generally prefer more ballet than circus in my ballet. Still though, pretty amazing.

LIFE-SIZE BALLERINA MUSIC BOX (click to view on iPhone)
After the last few weeks of making videos, this week I took a break and just relaxed, reading books in the library and listening to some Jacques Offenbach music on my life-size ballerina music box.
If you enjoy this video, please consider sharing it.
