Hello from Alexandria!
Posted: Wed Jul 05, 2006 7:00 pm
When I was in NJ, I was a member of NJIC, so I'm hoping this club will help fill in the gaps at the larger forums (NASIOC/iwsti/etc.) might not provide. Mr. Kleen referred me from NASIOC, so here goes! This was the hello I posted there, so if the references confuse you, that's why.
Hello from Alexandria!
I've been lurking these Mid-Atlantic forums for a month now because I was planning on moving... and it's time to say hi! I'm a new transplant from New Jersey who's just moved to the DC area to take a job with the US Patent Office. I'm VERY new to the area (only been to the DC area twice before -- once for my interview, and once to find an apartment), and am looking for meets and other social events to get me up to speed with the local culture and of course nightlife.
First a bit about me. I'm 26, and majored in Computer Engineering in college (which is what I'll be doing for the Patent Office). My hobbies include anything STi related, and kung fu. Also, I'm currently trying to get on the Alexandria Volunteer Fire Squad but not for fire, but EMT instead. I've got a couple friends in the DC area thankfully, so my move will be a relatively painless one.
As for my car? It's a 2006 WRB STi, which I got in May, and it's been a blast ever since. There's lots of pictures in my website's gallery, but also I've started a journal on iwsti.com which has a lot of info on the mods I've done and plan on doing.
So, basically that's that, and the NJ guys have made my first two months of Subi-ship amazing ones, and I've heard nothing but great things about the Mid-Atlantic guys too, so thanks in advance for all the good times to come. In case you haven't been reading my journal, here are some random pics of the car, and one of me!
