"I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. 

Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. 

You’re doing things you’ve never done before, and more importantly, you’re doing something. 

So that’s my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. 

Make new mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. 

Make mistakes nobody’s ever made before. 

Don’t freeze, don’t stop, don’t worry that it isn’t good enough, or it isn’t perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life. 

Whatever it is you’re scared of doing, do it. 

Make your mistakes, next year and forever."

— Neil Gaiman

I wouldn't have changed a single thing about 2012. 

Cheers to the best year (so far) of my life. Here's to many more to come. 

Bonjour 2013! 

Cheers and meet ya on the other side. xx

I hope you and your loved ones had an incredible Christmas and holiday season!

I'm back from Kelowna feeling refreshed and inspired artistically and professionally - I'm ready to tackle 2013, bring it on. 

But before we jump into the new year, it's time to ring out and celebrate this past one. I'll be decked out in my sequin dress with a glass of champagne in hand. 

Au revoir 2012, bonjour 2013! 

Also, not this song is my latest obsession. I had the opportunity to choreograph a solo for one of my dancers, and this music just clicked with her and I. More details to come about the story and concept...

five.

There's less than five weeks left of 2012. 

Hands down, this has been one of the best years ever for me. Here's hoping to an amazing last month of the year and going out with a bang.

There will be lots coming up on the blogette this month. Keep checking back for my holiday gift guide, more Notes on... and a holiday playlist of eclectic holiday tunes.
