Last December, my mom and I were at LAX waiting for my dad to arrive from Taiwan. We were looking at the magazines in the international terminal when Dustin Hoffman walked right by us, took a look at some magazines, and proceeded to go to the waiting area. He was all by himself. My mom kept telling me it was him, but I was skeptical because I'm absolutely horrible at recognizing even people I have seen in real life, haha. We went and stood behind him for a while. At that point, the people around him started to realize who he was, and I gathered some courage and went up to him and shook his hand. He was really nice! I convinced him to let me take a shakey picture of us with my cell phone (quality pretty much sucks). It's nice that there are celebrities like him out there (normal life, courteous to fans) and he really made my day so much better. My grandma passed away a couple of days before this happened and he helped me escape the sadness that I couldn't stop feeling for a little while.
