Life changing, amazing, frightening, best experience of my life.

It was about 2 AM around the fourth of July of 2002. I was outside on a hill with two other friends of mine. We were all just relaxing and looking at the stars when all of the sudden a fairly large bright star looking object that was above us for sometime started to move. It went unnoticed before because when it was still it looked like just another star in the sky. When the object started to move it was CLEARLY not an airplane or a satelitte. It started off moving a signifigant distance acorss the sky, from a our view of the sky I would say a few feet, which I'm sure in terms of space is millions of miles. After doing that a few times it came to a stand still. When it was at this stand still, I'm sure that it was directly above us, and when i say directly I mean as in if they dropped a pin it would have hit us. After repeating this process a few times, it went it to a frenzy of figure 8's. When the figure 8's occured we all noticed three other birght "star figures" which in turn were UFO's as well. They did not do as much moving as the one above us did. It seemed as though the one above myself and my compainions was the leader and the other three were followers. After doing the figure 8's and unexplainable patterns for about 10-30 min, it stoped abruptly. Right as it stopped, a car drove by us, this was probablly about 3:30 AM in a suburban area, thats not very typical for our neighborhood. The creepy thing about the car was that it stared directly at us when it drove by, which at 3 in the morning, and in very dark night on a hill, is strange. They should not have known we were up there because we made no noise and blended in with the hill. After the car drove by we became very frightened and ran back to my friends house.
