Can you catch one?

I've just seen, for the very first time in my life, a shooting star while I was on the phone with Ryan! I even made a wish when I saw it, which of course I cannot tell you what it was. According to Wikipedia, A shooting star is the common name for the visible path of a meteoroid as it enters the atmosphere. A shooting star is also broken pieces of meteors that have become broken off in space. I feel like something very good will happen to me soon!
