Basketbal-liam's
These are Liam’s TWO all-time favourite NBA basketball players
Who are Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant?
Liam does not consider it a vacation unless it involves this activity.
What is swimming? (Being in a pool / at the beach is also accepted. Anything to with animals or heights is NOT)
This is Liam’s all-time favourite food. A.Pizza, B.Hamburgers C.Hot Dogs D.Beef Skewers, E.Pol Sambal F.Sushi G.Tacos
What are Beef Skewers? (Made by his Papa, and this is when it was the ONLY thing he knew how to make)
For his first few birthdays, Liam would always do this when we started singing happy birthday.
What is cry? (Better question is, why cry Bruv?!? Shorty, it’s your birthday!!!)
This musical quartet was the main source of Liam’s entertainment as a toddler
Who are the Wiggles? (In real-life, anyone who actually has to ask “Who are the Wiggles” is a lucky person)
To hear Liam trash talk, just mention the name of this NBA basketball player.
Who is Lebron James? (Close second: his Uncle Shashi, if he was a basketball player... or even knew how to dribble :)
During his lifetime, Liam has travelled to this number of countries.
What is 10? (Canada doesn’t count, fools!)
This is Liam’s absolute least favourite food.
What is rice? (Maybe his parents should try serving him rice on beef skewers).
Liam shares this interesting birth-related detail with one of his parents.
He and his father share the same the birth minute - 10:41pm. (That’s a 1 in 1440 chance occurrence - hopefully the same odds that Liam will have his father’s height too)
This singer was the inspiration for Liam’s Halloween costume for two straight years.
Who is Elvis Presley? (It was Liam’s costume for 2 straight years both because of Liam’s love of Elvis music AND the cost of the costume itself.)
This 90’s basketball-themed hit is Liam’s all-time favourite movie.
What is “Space Jam”? (only until Mahaweli Meadows is made into a feature film)
Liam took his first step in this country.
What is France? (So fon fon of him)
This is Liam’s favourite place to order pizza.
What is Gino’s Pizza? (And of course ONLY Liam likes this joint - causes major Pieris sibling conflict on junk food days!)
These were Liam’s three sports-themed birthday parties.
What are basketball, soccer, and baseball? (His next sport-themed birthday will be cricket!)
At an early age, Liam showcased an unusual knack for rhythm with this instrument.
What are Bongos? (Fun fact: Bongo is what Callum thought Sunethra’s son Pablo’s name was, when Callum first him in 2017).
He is considered one of Liam’s biggest inspirations for learning to play basketball.
Who is Uncle Rex / Dada?
Liam’s first ever musical theatre experience was in this famous theatre.
What is the Sydney Opera House? (As this was his first ever experience, he had no issue how crappy our seats were!!)
Liam often enjoys this bread spread with his roti.
What is marmite? (He’s such a picky eater, yet he likes MARMITE? Rice-0, Marmite-1???)
Before Liam, this was the original first choice his parents had for his name.
What is Callum? (Liam’s actual name is Baddeliamaghe but they wouldn’t accept Sinhala letters on his birth certificate, so we went with Liam. Nikung Liam)
Whenever this 2015 rap song would come on, Liam could not resist doing its signature dance.
What is Whip Nae Nae? (Whenever we played the song in Brampton, it would be “Watch Me Whip, Watch Me Nae Nae, Naynay!)
This is Liam’s Jersey number for his rep basketball team.
What is the number 11?
If not for COVID, Liam would have been on a plane with his family this summer to visit these TWO countries.
What are the UK and France? (Because of COVID, he got St Catharines and Ajax instead)
Liam compares chewing steak to eating this.
What is gum? (BTW Liam dislikes eating gum as much as he dislikes rice. Yet he loves... MARMITE?!?!?)
When Liam was a newborn, he was affectionately nicknamed after this famous movie character (from a blockbuster movie released the year before).
Who is Benjamin Buttons? (From birth, Liam looked just like a cute little grandpa - actually just like his own cute little grandpa to be specific).
This is Liam’s favourite rapper and hint: (part of the name is the same as a famous clothing brand and sport).
Who is Polo G? (Liam only listens to hardcore rap now. It also makes his parents almost miss his Wiggles playlist...almost).
