Andsoforthisvideo, I justwanttotellyouguys a littlebitabouttheevent.
Justsoforthoseofyouwhomaybeintheareaandinterestedingoingnextyear, youcankindofhearmythoughtsnowonnowthat I'veexperiencedthefirstMajorKintahobbyeventtherethattheypulledoffand I thinkitwas a reallybigsuccess.
I had a reallygreattime.
I knowtheotherguestsalsohad a reallygreattime.
So I justwanttoshowyouguys a littlebitaboutitratherthandoinglike a logvideooflikemytrip.
I didn't take a tonofvideo.
I waskindofjusttheretojustkindofenjoytheevents, helpingoutwiththeeventeverything.
Andso I wasn't taking a lotofvideo a lotoftime, butittakessomevideos, so I'llkindoflaythatinherethroughoutthisvideo.
Nowthat I'm justkindoftalkingabouttheeventformetogetThio, they'retooquite a longtime I hadtotake a trainupfromwhere I livehereinKorea, uptoSeoulonthen a busfromSeoultoInchon, wheretheactualairportis, thenflyfromInchontoDallasandthenflyfromDallastoSantiago.
Soitwas a littlebitof a trekislike 30 hours, and I'vehadtravelingjusttogettoChileon.
ThenOnce I arrivedthereinSantiago, theypickedmeupandwedroveto a venuetomorrow, justnottoofarfromthere.
Butthewindwasstillreallycold, Like, I guess, frommountainsorfromthesea.
Eitherway, I guessit's betweenmountainandseats.
Sothewindwasstillprettycold.
Itwasnice, wasrefreshingevenwhenitwassuperhot.
Itwasverycomfortable, Whether I thinkso, itwasniceformebecausehereinKoreanowit's winter.
Soitwas a nicechangeofpaceformethefirstdaythatwewerethere, wewentaround a littlebitonDhe.
Then I hadsomefreetimeandlikethelateafternooneveningtojustkindofwalkaround.
So I wasjustwalkingaroundthearea.
Youknow, tomorrowisreally, uh, populararea, I thinkamongchillas I'veheardreallycalmorbecometouristyarea, therewas a lotofrestaurants, and, uh, itwaslike a reallynicecoffeeshopthat I found.
Theyalsohad a couplemorereallyinterestingvendorsaswell.
Oneofthevendorswas, ah, localbeervendor.
Justreallycool, really a greatidea.
I thinkso.
Itwasnice.
Uh, youcouldjustgetsomebeerrightthereintheeventfromjust a localbeerbrewerythatwascoolonanotheronewasalsojust a businessofahguyandhisgirlfriendwhomakethesecustomdisplaycabinets.
So I shouldalsotakethistimetomentionthatdownbelow.
I'llput a bunchoflinksdownbelowputlinkstothepagesoftheotherguests.
TheonesthatdohavepageslikeSurajdoesn't have a pageforhismodeling, Butif I cantrytofindoutjustlike a coupleofexamplesofhisworkorsomethingonsomeblood, tellme, PutdowntherejustsoyouguyscanseehisworkaboutVinnie, asyouknow, has a pagePablo, I thinkmaybealsojustas a page.
Sotherewastheirtablethere, andthere's a coupleothertablesalsothere.
Wehad a spaceaswellforus, fortheorganizer's andthegueststodisplaysomeofourmodels.
Sosomeofthestaffoftheeventhadsomeoftheirmodelsondisplaythere, and I tookmygun G 40 Sothatwaskindofliketheworldpremierethereofthatbecause I hadn't yetshownittoyouguysyet.
Thecomplete A model, but I completeditjustbefore I wentthere.
Andthenwewentfordinner, whichwaskindoflike a latedinner I had, Huh?
Soriano's, I think, wasthenameofit.
I hadtocheckifthatwasright.
Butjust a mountainofFrenchfries, thentoppedwith a mountainoflikebarbecuepulledbeef, notpulledporkwaslikethat, butwithbeefandthensomelikefriedeggsontop.
Andso's a hugeamountoffood.
Anditwaslike, kindoflate.
And I wasjust, like, tiredbecauseitwas a long, busyday, andjustfromthejetlagaswellwasthewholetime.
Likeallofus, theeventstaffwasjustworking.
Superhardisthattheywerealltiredandlikeforforus, I guess, towe'redealingwithjetlagandit's likealsodoesbeingtired, justworkingalldaygoingaroundtheeventischattingwithpeopleandeverything, butitwassomereallygoodfoodWealsotriedsomepeacecallus, which I wasn't really a bigfanofitssomekindoflikeChileancocktail, basicallywiththePiscoandCoke.
Anditwasn't reallyforme.
So I thinknexttime I goout, probablyjuststickwithbeerbecausetherewassomegreatChileanbeerstherethathadSo I thinkthat's probably I'llstickwithnexttime.
Maybenomorepeacecall S O R P solo, anythinglikethat.
So, like, forme, I judgedtheallthegumplusstuffandalsotheStarWarsonthemechamodelsondhethefantasyMinisandsolikethestuffthat's moretowardslikewhat I doAnd, likeotherguys, didjudgeothersectionsectionsofthethecontest.
Therewasquite a fewdifferentcategories, sotherewas a lotofroomcategoriesforpeopletoenter.
Therewas a lotofmodelkits, andGeneral, I wasreallysurprisedwithhowmanymodelkitswere.
Therewasreally a goodshowingof a lotofstuffand a lotofreallyqualitystuffthereaswell.
ThereweleftfrombeingDelmarandwentintoSantiagoforsomepeoplewhomaybecouldn't comeouttoinyourDamarfortheeventsovertheweekend s o thosepeoplewhoarejustlivinginSantiago, whowantedtomeetupwithme.
Wehave a chancetogotheretopolarhobbies, whichwasoneofthevendorsthereattheevent.
I can't emphasizeenoughhowgreat I thinkthestaffwasfortheeventandtheeventoverall, I think, was a hugesuccess.
I knowthatattheendoftheday, monetarily, basicallytheyprettymuchbrokeeven, uh, whichatleast I think, isbetterthanlosingmoney.
Butontheplusside, I thinktheydid a tonofworkforprettymuchattheendoftheday, noprofit.
So I mean, theydidthisjustoutoftheirownpassionforthehubby.
And I knowtheseguysaresuperpassionaboutthehobbies.
So I reallydohopethatthoseofyouwhodidattendtheeventwillreachouttothestaffandsaythankyouifyouhaven't already.
I knowprobably a lotofyouprobablyhavesaidyourthingsalready, but I thinktheydidn't awesomejob, and I thinktheyalsolearned a lotthattheycandoanevenbetterjobnextyearwiththehelpofyourguysisfeedbackonmeandtheotherjudges.
So I thinknextyearwillbeevenbetteron I hopethatnextyeartheycanalso, youknow, make a littlemoreprofitforthemselvesbecausetheydiddo a lotofreallygoodworkandtheydeserve, youknow, tomakesomeprofit.
But, uh, that's notreallythepoint.
Ofcourse, thepointwasjustthatweallhad a reallygreattime.
And I thinkitwas a very, inthatsense, a verysuccessfulevent.
