“I SWEAR:
To learn how to put eyeliner on
To be happy in my skin (whatever that means, but it is being said by all those skinny women on TV who don’t have much skin to begin with, and so they don’t have to worry about how much happiness to fit into their skin, but us fat girls have so much more skin we have to claw and scratch happiness from anywhere we can get it so we can stuff it into our skin)
…
I SWEAR
To not make promises I can’t keep.”

(p. 47-48)
