Last year, I had a trip with my friend, Nancy. We enjoyed sandwiches and shared a jar of honey tea over lunch. The weather was cloudy except for one night. Wearing comfortable skirts, Nancy and I camped in the field after dinner. I listened to her playing the guitar, and we felt relaxed. Looking at the stars, we started a hunt for the brightest one. "It's a pity we don't know which stars we're looking at, Jenny," said Nancy. "I know some of them," I answered. Nancy felt surprised when I finally finished telling her all the names I knew.

My interest in stars began when I was eight. My aunt Mrs Hill took me to a planetarium. A guide showed us the groups of stars and told us stories about how they got their names. The stories were wonderful. I even saw some X-ray images of the stars there! It felt like standing in front of the gate of knowledge.

I took a course at the club to learn more about stars. I realised that in addition to clouds, a bright moon also stops us seeing stars clearly. I always look for the Plough, because once I see that, I can find the North Star and other stars.

There are so many lights in the city that we have to go into the countryside to see any stars. I'm planning to make videos about stars in the countryside. I'll post them online for everyone to watch. My greatest dream is to be an astronaut and I wish I could have a space travel.
