Hey guys,

I'm in the ballroom at Beacon. Things have finally settled down here. This place is huge. Professor Ozpin and Glinda Goodwitch (the huntress I met that night) welcomed us and the other new students. It was cool.

This whole day has been kinda weird. I tripped over this girl's luggage and then accidentally inhaled some dust... and sneezed... and there's a new crater in front of the school now. They're already working on fixing it though, so at least I won't have to be reminded of it forever.

The girl who owned the luggage (I think her name is Weiss?) wasn't nice to me at all. It was totally an accident, but she won't stop yelling at me every time she sees me. It's hard being here without all you guys. Yang has her own friends already, so I feel pretty alone.

On the plus side, I think I may have made a new friend. His name is Jaune, and he's pretty nice. (No comments from you, Lily.) He doesn't know how to talk to girls at all, and he's kinda obsessed with Weiss, which is weird, but he's not like that around me. I think it's because I'm too young to go out with him.

Anyway, we're in the ballroom because we haven't been assigned dorms yet. It's like a massive sleepover, bit it's kinda weird having all these boys around. Don't tell Dad about that. I'm sure he wouldn't approve.

I wish you were all here. I could use some friends. Hopefully tomorrow will be easier. No awkward small talk, just awesome weapons and monster fights. That, I can handle.

I love you all and miss you. Write me back soon!

Love,

Ruby Rose
