The two farthest stalls in the girl's bathroom across from 1280 are my favourite stalls in the whole school because of the ridiculous stuff people write on the wall. They even put up white boards (even though it covered up a lot...)

The closest Smoke shops are a Convenience store in Westdale and a Gas Station across Main Street.

I heard it was 9 meters from any entrance... I don't remember though, it was just some random information for me when I was in first year. It might say at the entrances of residences though.

I understand the convenience store across the street is pretty cool about it.

The tunnels in West Quad, which run between Matthews, Moulton, Wallingford and Refectory, can be accessed even though you will be told that they are old, collapsed and are warned never to go in them. The mag locks that hold them shut disengage during fire alarms, so instead of running for the front door, head for the tunnels (and no, you can't be locked in when the locks re-engage). Just watch out for patrolling CAs. The tunnels aren't collapsed, and are just dirty and used for storage. The tunnel from Matthews basement actually leads to Refectory, and you can use it to get in there after hours during conveniently occurring fire alarms. That being said, never pull a fire alarm.

It's the most centrally located residence meaning generally in total, you have to walk less to your classes compared to other residences.

The games room is the best chilling out room.

There is a stoner shrine in the woods of Cootes Paradise behind Mac, on Secret Island (although apparently it's now called "Cockpit Island" on google maps). There's a little hand made lean-to shelter, a couple of hammocks, and a waterproof box filled with "give one, take one" stoner related goodies.

I wouldn't recommend swimming..
