I couldn’t believe it. There I was in line, buying gifts at Target. I saw a gentleman walking next to me, with an all too familiar swagger. While I tried to figure out who he was, I looked up and I realized it was none other than Donnie Wahlberg. “No way!” I thought to myself. My teen idol was standing right in front of me and I was absolutely speechless. Was I able to muster up the nerve to ask him to take a picture with me? I thought for a minute and I just couldn’t do it. Call it “star struck” I don’t know, but by the time I finally found the courage to ask him to take a photo, he walked away. There went my opportunity! So my advice to you, Santa Clarita, don’t do what I did! Be prepared at all times – get your cameras ready and snap away!
