Very bright, circular object in evening sky

It was around 11:15pm and I went outside to sit on my backstep to make a phone call. I looked around at my surrondings like I usually do and out of nowhere a very bright and extremely big circular object moved in the sky. Also the evening was a bit cloudy but this object was like a jewel among the darkness for a few seconds that it appeared. It moved so fast and within seconds it disappeared as fast as it appeared. I really do not know what I saw but from my distance it was high in the sky but it was so big that I could see how bright it was and that it was round in shape. I figure if this was a shooting star or satellite it would have left a trail to follow but this did not. I came in to tell my family immediately because I was not sure what to think. I also believe it was just pure chance that I saw this because it happened so quick. I would normally not go online to tell this story but I thought it might be important for you to know.
