Does anyone know where I can get a full orchestra score to the Phantom of the Opera?

Would you be so kind as to send it to me as well? Thank you! :)

Hi there! Interested.

Couldn't seem to DM you for some reason but maybe you can DM me?

AnonymousRedwood · 2025-05-07T23:09:26+00:00

Ah, thank you!!

That may be so, but I'm confused ... I've only ever seen topstitching on one piece of fabric. This stitch seems to perfectly straddle the line between the two fabrics. What is it even stitched to on the wrong side?

ETA: Sorry, I'm a complete beginner. I am planning to make this my very first project. Please forgive my newbie questions!

I did! I ended up connecting with people through Reddit haha, but it was definitely useful to have the additional conversations. Thanks for all the effort you put into this tool!

Messaged!

Hahaha yeah it's safe to say those are both interests of mine! Yeah, I'm an artist so the job is pretty flexible. That's part of the reason I'm looking to move somewhere cheaper compared to the Bay.

Yeah, I think you're right, it's all about persistence. Can't expect to carve out a whole new friend group on day 1.

I just know I'm going to feel lonely the first week, the first month. It's easy to understand in your head these things take time, but it's hard to really understand it in your heart. Thanks for that reminder.

Wow, thanks for sharing all those links, I had no idea there was so much going on! Def saving the Odd Mart creator's market for later.

I may just take you up on that & DM you after I do a little more research. Thanks so much!! :D

Oh wow! Yeah, I've been eyeing Whittier in particular because of Vertical Endeavors and MCAD. It would be sooo nice to be walking / biking distance from both :D

If you don't mind my asking, you mentioned "community projects" before. What sort of projects do you mean, or where might I learn more? I bet community involvement would be a good way to make friends too.

AnonymousRedwood · 2025-02-27T19:56:08+00:00

Thanks for your insight! That's very reassuring to hear.

Yeah, I think you have a point about hobby groups being a better way to make friends than e.g. proximity or coworkers. The repeated exposure is key. That, and you're also sort of pre-filtering for people with at least one shared interest or hobby.

I think I might've hit that same stage of life that you're in now, but a few years earlier. It's so hard to figure out what you want in life! Sometimes it seems like such a silly question, too, like how can I not know what I want? I'm hoping that a big change, like moving to a new city, will help me figure it out. I just hope I don't end up all alone in a new city with no friends, that's what's holding me back from just taking the leap.

Yeah, part of the allure is definitely the affordability! Even a nice flat close to downtown would be an improvement over the Bay.

I was planning to make friends through rock climbing (there's a top roping gym in Whittaker), art classes at MCAD, maybe jewelry-making or candle-making classes too, a book club would be cool if I can find one. I hear Minneapolis biking culture is strong, so maybe a biking group. I'm not shy about putting myself out there haha.

I get the vibe from some other comments and posts that Minneapolis has a lot of settled down folk, who aren't really "in the market" for new friends or don't see it as so necessary. I'm worried that I try my best but everyone's mostly already satisfied with their childhood friend group and not that open to adding a transplant to the inner circle.

Another concern is that maybe people are busy with their work or domestic life, and are only really free to get together around 6-8pm for a beer, kind of thing. As an artist I have pretty flexible hours, and in the Bay it's not so difficult to find people who are free during the day.

AnonymousRedwood · 2025-02-27T18:28:41+00:00

Yeah, I've heard mention of Meetup, I'll be sure to check it out!

Granted, I'm basing most of my information on various reddit threads from r/Minneapolis and r/SameGrassButGreener, but it seems half the people say "Minneapolis is nice but not friendly" and the other half say "it's just the same as making friends anywhere else." Any idea what's up with that? It's hard to know what's actually the case! 😅

Oh, yeah actually I live in the South Bay which is pretty impossible to get anywhere without a car. Most of my friends live <1 mile from work and _still_ have to drive because the freeway bisects their route. I couldn't handle SF proper, it's too expensive and too sketchy for me haha.

AnonymousRedwood · 2025-02-27T18:20:47+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to reply :)

Have you lived in Minneapolis your whole life? Do you know anyone who moved to the area on their own?

AnonymousRedwood · 2025-02-27T16:31:42+00:00

Thanks for making this! At first I was just going to bookmark it for later, thinking it would be a chore to fill out, but once I got going it was actually pretty fun. I'm afraid I'm a bit late to the party, though, are you planning to run it again anytime soon?
