Talk when was the first time you admired the Sky

- Who was with you
- What you saw
Sample answer:
Well, I live in the city and therefore, it is feasible to get a clear glimpse of the sky due to light pollution. I remember I was invited by one of my friends to pay visit to his home who lives in a hilly area where I enjoyed the clear sky. It was my first time to go far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. To reach his home, it took 10 hours long drive. On the day of arrival at his home, I just slept at night. On the very next day, he planned to take me to the top of the hill, and spend a night nearby a lake. It was an exciting experience for me. On reaching the top, we set up camping tents. As the sun sets, the stars started glowing like diamonds. I was mesmerised by looking at twinkling stars. It was the first time when I really enjoyed the view of the clear sky. I had read about stars during school time, after this incident, I had got more curious about knowing the universe. So, this was the first time, when I really admired the sky.
