I need help on building my first robot

im a BS Information Technology student from the Philippines.. currently im trying to find a away to build my first robot (its a project.. i gotta make one) without first hand knowledge.. im having problems on finding a shop that has the materials i need.. (we dont have radioshack here).. so.. if anybody here is in the philippines.. i need your help.. so bad..

also.. if anybody can help me with some programming language.. even simple concepts.. so that i could program the robot(again its required to make your own program for the robot).. i know basic c language.. but i have no idea how to make a motor move with it... bless me..

i was hoping to build a simple one.. something thats programmable... can anyone give me a suggestion on what to make?
