Whidden - Introduce yourself!
Guess I'll get this started.

I'll be living in Whidden-1G 105. So anyone who's lived in whidden wanna let me know what does the 1G mean? first floor, ground? and how big are the single rooms, bathroom situation on first floor, and lastly is 105 at the front of the building or at the back.

Well anyways, looking forward to meeting everyone in whidden, should be fun.

I lived I Whidden hall last year in 329. The best experience of my life. But I guess it depends a lot on your room mates.

yup those are bed numbers. if you're 'C' then that means you get a separate bunk bed with a desk underneath.
http://housing.mcmaster.ca/Residence..._and_Loft.html (like the guy on the right)
If you're 'B' then you're the guy on the right with your desk being behind you.
If you're 'A' then you have the top bunk on the right and you're desk being the one of the left.
