Not bad.
A couple things, though:
- Work on your trills. Try and really get them blisteringly fast (playing 256th notes or something), and then bring it back down. You can also let them flow a bit.
- Balance: you've got it mostly down, but the LH still is somewhat loud.

Other than that, not bad.

I just had to watch the whole thing bc I was thoroughly amused by your sort of "Rain Man" dance w an under bitten "ferocious" grimace!!! Bc of that you made 9 2 totally unique !
Work in progress:

Oh yes much thanks for the needed advice!!! i will work to fix them and redo it as i hate to give Chopin injustice. Strange i didn't pick up on my LH until you mentioned it.  Cheers !

@Brian bahahaha glad it was entertaining  ;D
