Sky Clearer but no luck with Shooting Stars

The sky is pretty clear tonight.  Some high clouds but stars are visible.  I look out for shooting stars for about 15 mins but no luck.  I remember seeing shooting stars once.  I just search my blog and that was in Aug 2012.  I can still remember the incident vividly.  I woke up early and then open the level 3 door and then saw the shooting star.  It is only a couple of seconds.  So I was very lucky indeed!
