helloowzz! yeah, came back specially just to update you on my coursework. well in the end I really did build a robot. with lots of scrap metal and stuff. I had a really hard time collecting ALL that junk. and uh my robot will be in a position that is breastfeeding a baby. not a real baby of course, and not a robot baby either. just some doll that’s supposed to symbolize a real human baby. well the message I’m trying to put across is about some kinda loss of humanity, whereby such a simple and basic act of breastfeeding will / may in the future, be taken over by robots. are we really going to leave our babies in the hands of robots? can you imagine… those cute chubby innocent babies in the robots’ hard stiff cold unfeeling hands?! no way! and to reiterate my point of how cute and innocent babies are… everyone can watch a video of this really cute toddler called Zoei Toh. seeing her sing, and her innocent actions makes me forget all troubles! the URL is:? this website v = AR4PQ30VkBk? all baby – lovers and christians are strongly encouraged to watch it. you will simply fall in love with her!?
