It doesn't matter if it was just a weekend trip home, a week vacation, or a full on month for winter break; all these breaks leave us missing Manhattan and the memories made within the little apple. There are some things in Manhappiness which simply cannot be replaced.
1. The famous grilled cheese mac and cheese.
Sorry, Mom, your grilled cheese is good, but not that good.

2. Manhattan Hill.
Is your town really a town if the name isn't displayed on a hill for us to visit? Technically, yes; emotionally no.
3. Aggieville.
Just as awesome on Tuesdays, as it is on Thursdays, as it is on Saturdays.
4. The people.
They are more than just people -- they are family.
5. Call Hall ice cream.
Yes -- even in the winter.
6. The purple.
Purple T-shirts, purple ice cream, purple pens, purple hearts. Everyone and everything looks better in purple.
7. The Konza prairie.
Makes for the perfect study break in any season, and only 15 minutes away from campus.
8. Campus itself.
Because even on the most dreadful days you can't really complain when you attend one of the most beautiful campuses around.
9. The sunsets.
You haven't really lived until you've watched a sunset over the flint hills.
10. K-State college life.
And, yes, that includes the late nights in Hale during finals weeks, the early morning classes, and the most boring of the lectures. College wouldn't really be college without it.
