Welcome to Krazy.Dreams.Uploaded, wanderer. You have just stumbled on the place where dreamers dream, made come true by a “Krazy” group of students from MCC 129 February 2009.
Before you proceed to prod through our minds and share our thoughts, allow us to introduce you to this site first. Krazy.Dreams.Uploaded is a project for a Mass Communications’ subject, designed by students for students (or any other age group for that matter). The Krazees chose such a name because we want it to be related to KDU College, the place where we met, as well as our learning institution.
Here you will find our thoughts on various subjects, arts and events such as anime, movies, games, places and fashion. From your readings, you will soon see that we consist of a diverse group of people, guys and girls alike. We love sarcasm, but at the same time, we are rational individuals who know how to respect others’ feelings and work. Feel free to agree with us or contradict us but be FOREWARNED: we do not take kindly to flaming and bashing.
That said, have fun! The Krazees will be happy to answer any inquiries and are bribable with chocolate or candy.
DISCLAIMER: This webpage and all other written material are strictly our work. Any of the material taken is duly credited, and was used purely for education purposes. We are merely poor college students, so should you choose to file a lawsuit against us, you only have our credit bills to gain.

The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy
By: Yvonne
Humorous, Cynical and Macabre all at the same time, Tim Burton is what first comes to mind. Along with his book called The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy, a collection of short stories that mirror all of what he’s best known for in his movies such as Edward Scissorhand, Nightmare Before Christmasand Beetlejuice. This little book is filled with darkly comedic limericks or poems rather than short stories, all of which can be read under 15 minutes. But what’s so intriguing about it is that we get a glimpse into his vision of these poems through little pictures that entice and delights its readers because of its simplicity coupled with its childlike prose within the pages of these morbid tales. However, underlying all the humorous anecdotes is the recurrent theme of violence that children suffer, not only because of parental abuse, but also because of peer related issues.
Perhaps I myself am still a child at heart, or worse, intellectually stunted (in other words, spastic. lol..), but I do find this tiny book an interestingly quirky read because it seems almost effortless and is yet, supremely twisted and tragic. In my opinion, it appeals to the odd child in all of us and is entertaining to read just to see what the author comes up with next. The pictures are really cute as well =) Don’t take my word for it though, here’s a lil taste of how the book would be like:
