This week I began to gather all the materials needed to construct my creation. I am very pleased
to be performing this experiment and I realize that there are many faults and victories to come.
To progress in the creation of my monster, I gathered all of the needed appendages as well as
tools to create it. I received many different parts which varied in shapes, sizes, and colors. I
chose all of these parts accordingly to ensure the best for my creation.
I observed numerous parts in which I liked, and had to choose the best possible option. I will
admit that the facial features of my creature were picked the most carefully, because I wanted my
creation to be a work of art.

This week I would attach most appendages and extremities of the body. I had previously
prepared the torso adequately to assure this step in the process was carried through correctly.
I continue my progress by attaching both legs and arms, as well as feet and hands to the body.
This process was a little bit of a break compared to preparing the torso. I was able to easily and
successfully attach all appendages on my first attempt.
I observed as my creation began to come to life. I was in the middle of making a living,
breathing human being; a task no man has successfully completed before. I now had a full body
lying on my worktable ready to come to life.

This week I was able to prepare the head and all of its features. Including the brain and all of the
facial structure and features.
To further my progress with my monster, I found an acceptable cranium and matched it with a
proportional brain. After this, I ensured that the head was closed fully and proceeded by adding
all facial features needed for the monster to be able to experience all five senses successfully.
Then, I attached the finished head to the body.
I observed numerous issues when inserting the brain into the cranium casing. The brain is one of
the most delicate and fragile organs in the body, and is the most important for the proper
functioning of my monster. I went through six brains before being able to successfully place one
in the skull.

This week I attached the spinal cord of the monster and sauter all major veins and arteries. This
was the most challenging week to come.
To further my progress, I first attached the spinal cord to the brain and had it run down the spine.
This was the most difficult task I performed in my entire experiment. The spinal cord has
multiple nerves and is very thick which makes it hard to work with, not to mention its one of the
most important things in the human body.
I observed a complete body in front of me at the end of this week. All limbs, nerves, arteries,
veins and everything else were in place and ready to function.

This week I was to finish anything leftover and cover the entire specimen with skin.
I began by ensuring that all of the attached appendages and muscle cells had started growing
together and all appendages were secure and fully mobile on the body. Then, I finally covered
the body with skin.
I observed something terrifying. My creation appeared as though it was cut into pieces and was
then stitched back together by someone who knows absolutely nothing about stitches. However,
my monster was complete and ready to be brought to life.

This week I was going to experiment with my monster and possibly train him.
Unfortunately, this wasnt possible. After I had fled my laboratory the night my monster came to
life, the monster ran away. I have not seen him since that night and I am almost glad that I
havent.
I would like to further experiment with my creation and perform multiple tests to see if he
contains all the same qualities of a normal human being. Being that he is not present, I am unable
to complete these tasks and will continue my search for him.
