15 Reasons Brooks Rattigan Was A More Perfect Date Than Peter Kavinsky

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.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.
