In This Article:

You should all know that the long-awaited rom-com starring, once again, Noah Centineo was finally released on Netflix this weekend.

This time Noah Centineo stars as Brooks Rattigan in "The Perfect Date." Brooks Rattigan does share some qualities with Peter Kavinsky, but he has some key differences that really makes him more lovable than our beloved Peter Kavinsky.

1. Brooks wants to go to freaking Yale

He has big dreams and will do anything to make his dreams a reality.

2. He is an entrepreneur

He and his best friend Murph, literally created an app just so he could get his chaperone business off the ground.

3. The rodeo outfit

4. The salsa outfit

5. The bad boy boyfriend so her parents would like her actual boyfriend more

6. Only saying "yes" "I agree" and "there's no other way to see it"

Sometimes a girl just needs you to listen and agree with everything she says even if she might be totally wrong.

7. His dance moves

Despite the moves Celia did not have, Brooks could dance for days and enjoy every minute of it.

8. He looks really good in a suit like really good

9. He has good intentions

He may have been dumb and put his ambitions above his best friend and not realize when Celia wanted to be with him, but he did have good intentions. He did not mean to hurt anyone, he thought he was doing all of the right things to get to Yale, even if he was wrong.

10. He's not the popular boy everyone wants, like Peter K

Brooks Rattigan is from a more poor area and does not have all that his crush Shelby does in this movie. He is not the boy that every girl in school is pining after, he's the boy trying to find himself.

11. He actually had pretty decent dating advice

Talk about what you want to talk about.

12. He clearly knows how to have fun

13. He is the cutest subway shop worker

14. Brooks Rattigan just might be more fun to say than Peter Kavinsky

15. Even through all of the dressing up and pretending to be other people, Brooks finds who he really is and gets the girl

"The Perfect Date" is a really fun rom-com with great characters, especially Brooks Rattigan. Noah Centineo once again shines in this movie and will have girls all over falling even more in love with him (including myself). It's up for debate but Brooks Rattigan, just might be more lovable than Peter Kavinsky.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
