I saw a light in the sky that at first acted like a satelite, and then it did not act like a satelite or anything else I've ever seen!

I went outside, to see if I could see any meteors, as it was around that day when we were supposed to be able to see the meteor showers.

Looking up in the sky, towards the east, up , way way up in the sky, I noticed a light moving across the sky. At first I thought it was a satelite, but then it suddenly changed direction, and started heading northeast, moving at a very very fast speed, and there were no flashing lights to be seen like on an airplane.

It "zipped" even faster, and completely disappeared. I stood there and wondered what the heck I had just seen. When I came back inside I spoke with my aunt on the phone and described what I had seen. She laughed and told me I had just seen my first UFO. I about fell out of my seat, and sought a place to report it, just in case that was what it really was.
