when I was young,
I used to sit in a classroom
which had no aircon
it came only with a ceiling fan
turning and turning
one day when I looked up
the ceiling fan didn't look quite fasten to the ceiling
it swing violently
the only thing that is holding it was the wires
and it looked as if it was going to fall off the ceiling
I was rather terrified
I was afraid it would drop and chop my head off with its crazy swinging out of control blades
It didn't of course
ceiling fans only existed in school and hospitals
not in HDB flats cos the ceiling were just too low for them
when I came to malaysia
I was surprised to find them in houses
Eventually I got a chance to own a house of my own
and I had to make a choice between standing fan or the ceiling fan
the fear of crazy ceiling fan never left me
But they told me the ceiling fan is more effective in cooling room area than standing fan
and they also explained to me that one must fasten a hook on the beam
and the fan will be hooked to the beam hence it is very very safe
I bought the ceiling fan and got some expert to install it
it turns and cools the room
but I still stare at it and take photo of it
becos you just never know...
