It's already a year since that "magical" night when WE first me which I posted in my blog. The blog was mainly about the Meteor Shower which I found out happens yearly since 1986 because of Halley's Comet. It was a very fine night when I was suddenly invited to come out by my friends and suddenly found that beautiful stranger who, all of a sudden, became the source of my eternal blessings.

We were walking everywhere in our town as we sought for a vehicle which would take us to our out-of-town party in Laguna when my friends started teasing me to this special person (because they knew before this happened, I had a crush with this wonderful being)...

And then, as we stood there in midnight, we all saw that flash of light up on the sky.

It was a meteor.

I'm not into fairy tales nor cheesy stuff but there was no harm of wishing upon it so I made a quick wish. And so, here we are... about to reach our anniversary....

Anyway, here are some more information regarding the meteor shower which again took place last Wednesday:

Spawned by Halley's comet, which last buzzed the planet in 1986, the tiny space rocks are the seeds of the annual Orionid meteor shower.

At its peak before sunrise Wednesday morning, the Orionids shower should produce 20 to 25 meteors an hour—a "relatively decent show," according to astronomer Anita Cochran, of the University of Texas at Austin's McDonald Observatory.

And don't worry if you miss the Wednesday peak: The Orionids are currently being created by a broad stream of debris, which means the best views should be available several nights around the peak, experts say.

Orionids' "Very Recognizable" Region

The Orionids are so named because the meteors appear to radiate from near the constellation Orion, aka the Hunter.

This easily spotted constellation "kind of looks like an hourglass with a very recognizable belt of stars," said astronomer Mark Hammergren of the Adler Planetarium in Chicago.

In addition, "the constellation is visible from pretty much anywhere in the world, because it appears along a line of sight close to the Equator," he said.
