i HATE the sound of reggae air horns. that sound is so ridiculously unnecessary and annoying! Especially, ESPECIALLY in Drake’s Forever song.

ohh john, you always have the best advice =]
So. Original plan: collect some data, make a totally sweet-ass visualization of it, print it, frame it, give it to Heather on our wedding day. Nice, right?
As ever, it didn’t quite work out.
For one: Illustrator is really hard. This looks nothing like it does in my head. Had to make a lot of compromises. Two: I didn’t finish it in time. Partially related to the previous point, partially related to me not having this idea far enough in advance (about 3 days). Three: No privacy while Heather is at home! And she took a day off work during those 3 days! Making my deadline effectively 2 days! Having never even used Illustrator! Without even owning a copy of Illustrator!
So. Yeah.
Regardless, I kind of like how it turned out. I had a much better idea in mind (two, actually) for the timeline portion, but I wasn’t able to get a good enough grasp on Illustrator to make it happen (see point one).
Now I have a year before our first anniversary to get better at Illustrator and make a way better version depicting our first year together.
Click to see it big, by the way.
this gives me hope
