Think back to 2004. Most of us probably don't remember that time in our lives, but I'm sure we all remember the movie "A Cinderella Story." It's truly one of the most timeless movies of our age, and one of the biggest reasons for that is Chad Michael Murray's, Austin Ames. Not only was he the star of the football team, but he was also humble, down-to-earth, sweet, and he made the perfect Prince Charming.

But, after that period of teen rom-coms, there hasn't really been a knight in shining armor for us to look to. That is until Noah Centineo came along. He "woah woah woah"-d his way into our hearts as Peter Kavinsky in "To All The Boys I've Loved Before," showed us his sensitive side as Jamey in "Sierra Burgess is a Loser," and now he's the date of our dreams as Brooks Rattigan in "The Perfect Date."

Truly, Noah is single-handedly bringing back the rom-com hero. Here are eleven reasons why he's the perfect date of our dreams.

1. He really knows how to dress for any occasion.

Do you even need Noah Centineo dressed up in 80s attire for a date? No. But do you want it? Of course you do.

2. He's got big goals for the future.

I'm all for guys having dreams to attend big Ivy League schools. It's seriously admirable.

3. And he's willing to do whatever it takes to achieve those goals.

Clearly, since that's what "The Perfect Date" is all about. We stan an ambitious Noah.

4. He goes all-out while trying to make his date comfortable.

He has individually-wrapped mints AND water bottles in the car? Talk about the height of luxury!

5. He's always ready to dance, no matter how bad his date's moves are.

Netflix

As a certified Bad Dancer, I would love for all my future dates to compare my dancing to Chandler Bing. That somehow makes it funnier.

6. He actually gives solid relationship advice.

Netflix

He's super understanding when the girl genuinely doesn't know what to do on her "date," and she actually gets a date in the future! That's some A-plus relationship coaching right there.

7. Sure, he can be selfish at times and ditch his friends for his own gain.

He and Shelby are so not good together. Doesn't he realize he belongs with Celia?!

8. But he eventually comes back around, so he is forgiven.

Netflix

In his heart of hearts, he knows friendship, learning who you truly are, and love are all more important than money.

9. He learns being true to yourself is the most important thing.

Netflix

He starts over by being true to himself, and he learns to follow his dreams that way. That's some fantastic character development right there.

10. He even writes his crush a letter asking her to be her boyfriend!

Netlifx

He uses a college admissions metaphor to ask Celia to be her boyfriend! That's honestly so dorky and adorable.

11. To put it simply, Noah Centineo truly is the perfect date.

Netlifx

Name any other fictional boyfriend who can make a formal dance in a sub shop the most romantic thing in the world. I'll wait.

So to all the producers/directors out there, if you put Noah Centenio in a rom-com you know all the girls will come calling.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions.

Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
