Bitter-sweet revenge is a dish best served cold. The person doing so relishes its sweetness, as an eye for an eye makes us feel better for the wrong that has been done to us. It’s an expected, but short-lived pleasure that is often followed by long-lasting bitterness. With time, the sweetness of revenge turns to guilt, shame, regret and sadness. That’s why they say that revenge is bitter-sweet.
Second year HR students seem to understand this better. This is evident through the manner by which they conduct themselves. I guess this was the reason why it was the only favourable group to have a chance in Annex for one semester. The only class that would accept having classes from 7am to 4pm non-stop and spend money daily on transport.
It has been a long journey for the second year HR students. Everyone
was set for studies after some of the first year journalism students had
approached one of the lecturers to confirm that there are no free marks
in my university as stereotyped. This information set comrades on fire
as everyone started thinking of nothing less than a first class honours
degree. This seems to be a nightmare.
Second years in diaspora are really suffering from loneliness but who cares. One of the ‘mama mbogas’ reminded me that this place is made for the PSSP students who are believed to be very rich when I tried to complain over the fact that a single tomato is sold at Ksh 10. Second years thought that everything would just be as in Main Campus. Out of sight, out of mind. This was evident when they went to the communication conference which was held in Main Campus last Friday.
The events at the COSAMU conference left them with a lot of bitterness. COSAMU is a communication students association but they did not seem to belong. The only thing they knew about the program was there would be presentations but no one had a glimpse of the whole program. They were like the Harambee Stars’ spectators. This was the only chance they had to remind themselves of writing and speaking, but it seems they are no longer communication students, they are lawyers. The hustle will come to a climax at the end of July when they will be clearing rooms and carrying their luggage back to Main Campus.
Despite the difficulties, comrades are united to survive. Indeed unity is strength and do not despise the humble beginning of second years. No one knows what they are up to. You need to visit Annex and see how united they are. They speak one language ready to persevere. This is the only group in history that will produce lifelong couples. Every member of staff praises them. Being in town for the first time, many thought of the worst from them. They will leave the mess operators to suffer loss since they claim that the law students eat in town-based hotels.
