Entry 1
Master said I should start keeping a journal so that I wouldn't forget how to write. I don't know what to write though… I guess I'll talk about Master, then.
Master is a very smart man. I've only begun living with him for four months and he's already taught me so much. Reading and writing, for example. He also taught me how to use a needle to pop open a lock and how to take things from people's pockets without them noticing. It's actually really fun! So far I've gotten fourteen wallets and Master has praised me so much!
Master is better than me at these things, though. He can probably get twenty wallets in a day. He gets close to people really quickly without them noticing. I think that's because Master is so thin and dark that people think he's a shadow. I want to be like Master when I grow up!
Okay, I have to sleep now. Master is going to take me to the market tomorrow to get some more wallets so I have to be nice and rested! Good night!

Entry 2
I went to the market with Master today. There were lots of people with pockets, so I got to take a lot of wallets. A weird man grabbed my wrist when I tried to take his wallet, though. He smacked me across the face and called me a "pickpocketer". Some soldiers came running soon after and Master grabbed me and we ran really really fast. We then hid in a dark alley until the sun started to set. When we came home, Master scolded me harshly and didn't give me dinner, so now I'm hungry. Apparently it's bad to let someone see you take their wallet. I guess people love their wallets. Is it really that nice to take them? Master says I have to though, or he'll throw me in the streets.
I'm going to take lots of wallets tomorrow so Master will give me lots of dinner. That way we'll both be happy! Now I'm going to get some sleep. Good night!

Entry 3
Today Master said he was going to give me a new name. He said that I couldn't tell anyone my real name, so he was going to give me a fake name called alias. He told me that all great thiefs had aliases. I thought thiefs were bad guys, but Master said that what we were doing made us thiefs. I guess thiefs aren't too bad. I'm not bad, right?
Master said he'll have the new name for me by tomorrow. So today is the last time I'll be called my real name. I think I should write it down so I don't forget.

There. It's kind of sad now that I won't use this name. It's the only thing I remember from my parents. It's okay though, because I'm going to be a great thief since I'm going to have an alias. I can't wait for my new name! Good night!

Entry 4
Master gave me a new name! It's Leaf! Leaf Leaf Leaf Leaf Leaf Leaf Leaf Leaf Leaf I just can't get sick of writing it!
I kind of like it since it's close to Lefor, but it's also cool. Master said that it's meant so that I would be able to blend and not be seen like all the other leafs on the ground. I think it makes me feel more different. Like I'm wearing a mask. It's so cool. I just wish that people would ask me what my name was, but Master said to not tell people about it. That's weird. Yesterday he said he was giving me a new name because he didn't want people to know my real name. What's the point of a new name if no one's going to know it anyways?
Well tomorrow I'll be going to the market with a new name! It's going to be so exciting! Well good night now!
Signed,
Leaf (Lefor)

Entry 5
Master just said that he was going to put me in intense training starting tomorrow. I guess that means I won't have much time to write. But it's okay because I'm going to become a great thief.
I asked Master if he was a great thief. He didn't answer, but I think he is. He always gets more wallets than I do and he doesn't get caught. He also has many friends. Sometimes I see him go out with a few guys and when he comes home, his face red and he can't walk straight. Other times he brings a girl home with him. Then he kicks me out of the house and I have to go walk in the streets until he says I can come home.
Some day I'll be like Master and have many friends. I'll also be a great thief like him and I'll be able to take all the wallets in the world! Well I need to rest for the intense training. Good night!
