What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

Firstly I would be terrified of the philosophical implications of violating the space time continuum, and attempt to talk my self out of returning to the past in the first place. However, amusing I failed in that regard, I would advise my past self ironically, to always avoid points of view derived from or ending in an absolute. The sooner you understand and accept the fact that universals are few and far between, the quicker you can direct your complete attention to understanding the world around you. For in order to succeed in life, a person must master the art persuasion; which is absurdly improbable when there is genuine ignorance derived from a lack understanding. You are a brilliant intellectual, who needs to not impair himself intentionally. Spare your mind and soul from the current bombardment of senseless thoughts, that I know continuously plagues you. Relinquish that elitist view of yourself, remember to be eloquent in your speech, and always avoid universals.
