Mirai

I’m not a fan of Japanese (or Thai) food, but I finally caved in and went with a friend to Mirai tonight. I think I was the only person in Bahrain to not have tried it yet!Starters: Edamame & Shrimp Popcorn.. those were yummy!


Main
: I ordered the Chicken Teppanyaki (it wasn’t that great) and she ordered Maki - California & Tempura (that was actually good.)

Dessert: I ordered the Chocolate Explosion & she had the Crisp Apple Strudel. They looked AWESOME, but didn’t taste good at all :(The decor was warm. The atmosphere was nice, mainly dependent on whether you’re lucky enough to have a good crowd turn out the day you go or not. All in all, it wasn’t bad.

If A Man..

This applies to both genders.. just replace man with woman where appropriate:* If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away.

* If he doesn’t want you, nothing can make him stay.

* Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.

* Allow your intuition to save you from heartache.

* Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that’s not meant to be.

* If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can’t “be friends”. A friend wouldn’t mistreat a friend.

* Don’t settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.

* Don’t stay because you think “it will get better.” You’ll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.

* The only person you can control in a relationship is you.

* Always have your own set of friends separate from his.

* Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.

* Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.

* You cannot change a man’s behavior. Change comes from within.

* Don’t EVER make him feel he is more important than you are…even if he has more education or in a better job.

* He is a man, nothing more nothing less.

* Never let a man define who you are.

* Never borrow someone else’s man.

* If he cheated with you, he’ll cheat on you.

* A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.

* You should not be the one doing all the bending…compromise is a two way street.

* A relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals…look for someone complimentary… not supplementary.

* Make him miss you sometimes…when a man always know where you are, and you’re always readily available to him - he takes it for granted.

External Hard Disk

I’d like to buy an external hard disk. Any recommendations? I’d like something in the 200+ GB range.
