joo joo

My coworker who is a fellow Pinay suggested this website for purchasing novelty items that are supposed to remedy a current situation/personality defunct or just bring some good joo joo: http://www.starrystarry.com/. She had a friend buy her zodiac bracelet- as with bamboo plants, one is not supposed to purchase these lucky items for oneself for it is destined to bring upon bad luck- which she wears religiously. Apparently, if you are the holder of these bracelets, you and ONLY YOU can have physical contact with said bracelet- that means NO ONE can touch these bracelets, lest it bring bad luck upon yourself.

As if I'm not paranoid to begin with (my gamut of superstitions and hello, I'm Filipino), I'm actually going to have my mom (or Babe) buy me this lucky 8 bracelet- maybe if I go to Vegas in October, I'll go home BIG.



DESCRIPTION: The auspicious number 8 represents 8 magical realms in the heaven and pacifies 8 types of harm to gain entry to the right path. It will bring turnaround luck from bad to good for everyone during this Period of 8. It blesses the wearer with monetary gains, wealth, good fortune and abundance. Also suitable to bring gambling luck.

For those of you who do not know what "joo joo" means, I've linked you to the Bible: Urban Dictionary. See here for the definition of joo joo: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=joo+joo. If I offended you by even suggesting that you consult the Urban dictionary for the joo-joo definition because you already knew it, TOO BAD! haha

Happy Joo Joo,
P
