New ways of cleaning

Just a quick note... during cleaning time I had an amusing conversation with a student.  She was using the vacuum cleaner and I told them that vacuum is the American name, but that the English name is hoover.  I told them I always call it a hoover because I can't spell vacuum. 

The student working the vacuum (who kept telling me 'my vacuum, my vacuum!' the whole time.  I think she meant 'I'm vacuuming') said, 'me, me, me can!' and picked up the whiteboard marker.  As I expected, it started with a 'b'.  I was about to correct her when I saw the rest of what she was writing: 'bakyuuuuuuum!!'

I was cracking up as she made me say it with her ('Let's say!  'bakyuuuuuuum!!' 'bakyuuuuuuum!!').  Ah my kids are funny.
