    Although Tavia Yeung Yi is a rising actress at TVB and leads a comfortable life now, she still remembers her childhood growing up in Sha Tin district.

    Yesterday Tavia accepted an interview with Singtao Newspaper's new column "ET Star Home" and went back to the old neighborhood where she grew up. Upon seeing the places where she spent her childhood, many old memories came back.

    Near the apartment building where Tavia had lived as a child, there is a small park. Tavia has many memories of the park, "When I was young, I always came here to play with my elder sister. We would play late and forget about dinner time. My mother would have to come fetch us at the park. Everytime my mother would scold me. When I was unhappy, I would go to the park and sit there and cry." Although the small park is still present, there is a lot of construction going on.

    When Tavia was young, she liked to eat many snacks. After school, she would often buy Boot Jai Gao (glutinous rice cake) to eat. "At the time I was attending noon classes. After school, I would buy the rice cakes to eat everyday. The store is still here, but the owner can not recognize me anymore. But the rice cakes still taste just as delicious!"

    Tavia was mischievous as a child. Aside from fighting with her sister for toys, they would often argue; Tavia's mother had to displine her sternly as a result. Tavia liked to play with her neighbors. They would take turns hiding their shoes and try to find it afterwards.

    Tavia was not afraid of anything when she was young. She would often play at the park's swings, slides, and see-saws. When she was on the swing, she would try to swing to great heights, not afraid of falling. But now, Tavia admits that if she were to swing so high again, she would be nervous now.

    When Tavia was young, her mother would cook dinner at home all the time. When there was a rare opportunity to go eat outside, they would eat at the Dai Pai Dong (outdoors restaurant) near their home. Tavia said she was very happy sipping coke and spending time with her family. On Sundays, Tavia will go bike riding and eat chicken congee with her family.

    "When I was a child, our family spent a lot of time together. I was very happy. But as we grew older, our lifestyles grew different. Because of friends and work, we no longer went bike riding with our parents. Thinking back to the past, they are very memorable experiences."
