Shooting stars
Often people say they saw a shooting star. Well they actually saw a meteor. This is the trail of light left from a streak of light caused by tiny bits of dust and rock called meteoroids. The meteoroids fall into the Earth’s atmosphere and burn up.
At certain times of year, we can see a great number of meteors in the night sky.
If you can get away from the City lights you will see many more.
And of course make a wish and watch it come true.
If you do not see a shooting star, just look for the brightest star and make a wish. Think of a wish that is different and is possibly a new concept for you.
* I wish to know the answer to my career path
* I wish to be a good friend
* I wish my overseas trip is safe

I thought you were going to talk about the Paparazzi!!
I once saw Michael Diamond (Olympic trap shooting gold medalist) in the supermarket – does that count?
