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.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
