"Hi there,
My name is Kristina Chau and I am from Toronto, Canada. I chose the word "booya" because I love saying it! It's got great impact and is hilarious at the same time!
As per the Urban Dictionary, "booya" means:
"Bam!", "in your face", and "hell yeah", all at the same time. A term that self-congratulates, describes excitement, lets others know the magnificence of the celebration as well as the superiority of the user, and is used as an exclamation of those ideas."
Thanks!
