The zone-explain the process to me like I’m 5

Mature student looking to take advantage of the free gym membership, but I’m gonna be honest-I’m so intimidated by it!! What is the process of getting into the gym? Are there quiet times? Are the machines easy to use? Are people nice? Okay thanks bye

I love geese so much ❤️

I've had it. They are so goofy looking. The way they walk, their long necks, their colour, whatever they are saying when they honk. I would see a crowd of them every morning year-round in the field in the middle of the track. Usually they are joined by seagulls. This is whenever I walk from the further parking lot to school or vice versa. Sometimes I roll down my window as I drive (slowly), and wave at them as I pass. Often times they are there around 7:45 am, and I think they take off at around 4 pm or so. When they are going to take off they start honking beforehand to let everyone know it's time to skedaddle. I don't understand why they stand in the middle of the track for most of the day during the Fall/Winter term, but I appreciate them and they warm up my day every time I see one. I've gone through so much but I can always rely on a goose sighting sometime each day. I also like how they sometimes sit in the parking lots. I love taking pictures of them. One semester during 2024/2025 year I had a class in Mac Chown overlooking a pond. Most classes there would be a goose or two floating in that pond. Or one flying into the pond and making a splash. I try my best not to stare at them out the window because I want to be respectful to the prof. But it's so hard not to look at them. I saw a goose standing on the Walker Sports and Abilities center (the one with the grass on the roof). I thought it was cool because they are never up there. I thank the geese for the joy they have brought me at Brock U. ❤️‍🔥

Does anyone else find it crazy that tickets are $30 for a school festival/concert? Not only that we don’t know who will be performing as well.
