(X)oxo


X is a very difficult alphabet to tackle, so i looked in the dictionary and found only a few words under X like xylophone, xylograph, xmas and xanthippe? lol. i don't relate to those things, so i can't write much about it without having to google or wiki. so, i decided to blog on xoxo! i've no idea where it came from but i know it's another way of saying Hugs and Kisses. but then again, why use 'x' and 'o'? why not 'h' and 'k'. wouldn't it makes more sense? h for hugs, k for kisses. you don't say 'xugs' and 'oisses'? imagine ur friend saying, "aww...xugssss" or "biiiggg xugs". hahaha. but i guess, using 'h' and 'k' would look weird like this for example,

Get well soon!
Don't forget to take medicine.



hkhk,

fofana



boy, that is hilarious. haha. but i'm sure when they (whoever started it) first use xoxo, people were confused and thought, 'wth is that?' (that would be me). and later, people grew into the idea of it and soon using it almost anywhere. Like in emails, social networking sites, text messages as well as on paper. i do admit i use it occasionally. especially when a friend does it first, then i'll return the 'xoxo' to her. well, not necessarily but you get the idea. tell me this..when you use 'xoxo', do you really mean it or it's just a mere social necessity/accessory that you use at the end of ur texts/short messages?

actually i think the x is supposed to represent what two pair of hands would look like from behind when ppl are hugging.

and the o is when u pucker up your lips to kiss sumone. i could be completely wrong, though. hoho. can't remember who told me that.

Bulat said...

the x makes sense but for o, it's a bit erm..funny. so the next time we want to kiss someone, we'll pucker our lips like this?....

=O

haha

not the whole mouth, only the lips. eh jap.

ke the other way around, x for kisses n o for hugs.

mana2 lah, asalkan it means the same.

i always mean it because i only send it to certain people hehe
