This issue marks the culmination of 15 years of
Bloom Magazine. To me, 15 years really doesn’t seem so long. I have many friendships of more than 50 years. But time is relative. For
Bloom Deputy Editor Sophie Bird, 15 years is practically forever. She was a tot in fourth grade when I started the magazine.
There are some people who grew up here or who have lived in Bloomington for decades who lament all the changes. They miss the quaint little town they knew years ago. I sometimes feel that way after only a decade and a half. I reckon about 50 student apartment buildings have gone up, a dozen or so new hotels, and god knows how many new Starbucks all in the past 15 years.
