Call the obvious equals:
Don't make **** up.
Don't look for stupid ****.
Call what you see, not what you think will happen.
You're a second year and even though you don't understand a lot of these principles being thrown at you, they are time tested and work. If you don't understand, ask questions. But don't assume it's ridiculous just because you don't understand it.
