Mmm, it depends on how many months you go for. I went for four months and paid something like 56 dollars. I believe 8 months is around 100 bucks this year. Pretty sweet compared to gyms off-campus.

I think I'll deffinitely get a Pulse membership. I wouldn't mind checking out the gym/locker rooms too since I've never been there before. Does anyone know of it's hard to get a locker (not just a day one but a full rental)?

There are plenty of lockers that are first come first serve basis, as well as outside the reception area. However, by the end of the year lots of people leave locks on, and it becomes a slight hassle to get one, or walking around the change room till you find one. I recommend buying a locker, I believe they start selling Sept 2. I am going to Mac right now actually, and will post up when the actual date is when I find out. If you do want to buy one, come EARLY and wait in line. I remember in second semester there was some lockers for sale, I came in like 20 min early and there was a huge line up for like 30 or so lockers.

Wow 5 hours all at once? Lucky... i got stuck with random 1-2 hours and it was hard to study or do anything; you may think you've got tons of free time but it will probably be devourered by homework and readings..

You can also check out the House of Games in the basement of the student centre. It's a pretty fun place to relax on campus.
Or if you want to get away from campus for a bit you can walk down to Westdale and get lunch, shop, or hang out in Second Cup or My Dog Joe's (free wireless!)
