One of the first rules for being a good roommate is that you need to help clean up. Help do the dishes. If you have a dishwasher then don't leave the dishes in the sink. Take the clean ones out and put them away then start filling it back up with dirty ones. Vacumn the floor if you get stuff all over it, or even if it's just your turn to do it. If you make a mess somewhere then clean it up!! Getting a text that says, "Sorry, spaghetti exploded in the microwave, but couldn't clean it up because I'm late for work," is not acceptable. Clean up the crap! It's just common courtesy. Don't leave crumbs and spilled stuff all over the counter. It attracts roaches and ants and you don't want that!
Another thing: keep your own stuff cleaned up. Now, if you have separate bedrooms then your own room can be as messy as you like. If you share a room with someone then PUT THE MESS AWAY!! Don't strow your mess into the living room and leave it laying all around for someone to trip over and bust their head on the wall! That leads to emergency rooms, and that's not cool. You're paying for my hospital bills!!
