This is my best friend. Her name is Taylor Wallis Kirkpatrick and I haven’t seen her in over a year. We met my freshmen year of high school during french class; it was her junior year of high school. Within the first week of meeting her I witnessed her snort a line of coke off the text book during class. I was completely mortified. I had never seen coke in real life up until then nonetheless seen anyone snort it up right next to me. I remember she lifted her head from the desk, wiped her nose gently and then turned to me and very politely asked “would you like some?” Obviously, I said no. I had never even smoked weed before up until then. But of course, eventually when the time finally came, the first time I ever smoked weed was with her. The first time I ever did acid I was with her, too. I remember being completely mesmerized by Wallis and the way her mind worked. I had never in my life met anyone else like her. The best thing about it was even as we became inseparable, although I admired her for living the ridiculously crazy lifestyle that she did despite what anyone had to say about it, I never felt the need to impress her nor did I feel I had to be like her to be her friend. All I wanted was to be there with her. We are completely different people. She calls me her soul sister and never fails to remind me how much I mean to her whenever we speak. I make sure to do the same. She was and still is to this day the most honest and understanding person I’ve ever met. I have spilt my dirtiest and darkest secrets to her and she has never judged me nor criticized me for any of my mistakes. Wallis moved up to Jacksonville almost a year ago but we’ve still remained so close, maybe closer than we ever were before, through mail and daily phone calls. I miss her so much most days and I really can’t wait until the next time I see her. These days she’s kicked all her bad habbits…at least most of them. She’s stunning, isnâ!
 �™t she? I can’t imagine the person I’d be now with out her.
