Did you miss a room? Are you too poor to afford rentals at Talai stage or commute from Cheptiret or Kesses? Then you have to pirate. Comrades who had done this successfully before knows how to do it but to the new pirates, this is how to begin pirating, what your host expects from you, the dos and don’ts of pirating. If you follow strictly, then the semester will be very smooth and will end without you having squabbles.
BE CLEAN. This is the first thing you need to consider when you’re living in someone’s room. Even if your host keeps dirty utensils for a week, try to be different. Try and mop the room at least twice a week and keep the utensils clean. Do not hang your dirty clothes anywhere in the room and in case you find the room mopped, try and remove your shoes before you get in.
BE GENEROUS. However poor you are, be ready to provide at least some cash for quick lunch, coins for photocopy and meeting other financial obligations in the room. If at all you wear the same shoe size or dress as your host then be willing to assist if he asks for it. If your host puts on your pair of shoes or dress without your permission, don’t complain neither should you shame them in public.
BE COMPLIANT. This means being able to accept and persevere without much argument. For instance, don’t exchange words with your host when he asks you to stay out of the room for some time. Don’t pretend to be too busy with your laptop at that time he wants to have time with his wedlock. Simply read the mood and walk away.
DO NOT STEAL. Theft is a universal vice no matter the intensity of your covetion. Stealing will not only lead to you being sent away but also tarnish your name among your friends and those who respect you. Be contented with your belongings or borrow politely. Your desires must not drive you too much.
DO NOT TRY TO EXILE YOUR HOST .Always bear in your mind that you’re pirating in that room and therefore limitations must exist. If your host understands then let him give way. Otherwise your tongue shall not mention it directly to him if he is a staunch faithful of the church.
DONT BE SHORT TEMPERED. Pirating requires a strong heart, perseverance and a lot of cooperation. You must understand that most jibes concerning those who are pirating will always be directed to you directly or indirectly. This therefore calls for both assumption and forgiveness. Take them as normal jocks and do not respond with so many emotions. This is due to the fact that very few people tend to respect those who are pirating in their rooms.
Now, it’s not anyone’s will to undergo all the humiliations of pirating but the situation forces one. Living with hope is one important thing in human life. Therefore, one day hope that you will have your own room but before that, bear in mind the above rules and the semester will be very smooth.
