Beverly Chen

“My lucky dice located in my chubby has helped me find lost items on several occasions. However it would work in a way that’s more of an exchange then anything. That time when I lost something, I checked in my chubby and there it was, but I found that one of the dice was missing! Though weird, I find my dice to be my lucky item.”


Colin Ma

“My beat up, masking tape. I’ve been through so many things with it. Good times and bad times. Those are the shoes that led me to my bboying passion. Even though they're more rags than shoes I continue to use them today because of the so many past memories I’ve had with them. That and they're hecka comfortable and I love dancing in them”


Sierra Jenkins

“Well, when I was still living in Singapore, my stepmom purchased this necklace for me that has an "s" on it with diamonds and prettiness. She didn't give it to me until recently, when she finally decided that I was old enough to wear it and not lose it. Just the thought she put into this while I was still young and managed to hold on to the necklace meant a lot to me, and now I wear it every day. I feel weird if I don't, it’s my lucky item because when I wear it, I feel more confidant and so perform with better energy.”

Xinrui Chen
“It’s this cool blue rock I found on the ground I fifth grade. It looks like some sort of special rock but I wouldn't know. I don’t know why it feels so lucky but something about it just made me think that it was the most magical rock in the whole world. Or maybe because it's blue and fits into my hand easily and because I found it on the asphalt blacktop in like Camino grove and when I was little I was like omg what a treasure hahaha.”


Kiko Sunata

“It's a keychain heart and my best friend gave me before one of my first gymnastics competitions and I did really well so after that it became my lucky charm and now I carry it around on my keychain everywhere I go.”

Yoitsu Kamijo

“My lucky item is rather traditional because it’s a Japanese fan I got during the first year of high school. The reason why it’s lucky is because on the fan in Japanese is a saying that translates to mean “peace, purity, happiness”. These three words mean a lot to me, and it’s something I strive for; they also act as an encouragement to me in during rough times.”

“A lucky item? Ahaha I do it’s my CELLPHONE! Well because it’s my whole world, and when I’m away from home, it’s a way to connect with loved ones!”
