Being the hardworking me, I decided to give my standing fan a wash by hosing it down with water. After washing, I hanged the parts of the fan out to dry. Didn’t really hang them properly, and the fan blades part dropped onto the floor and a small part of it broke. Hmm, I thought that it could still be used, so I decided to assemble everything back together and use it. I thought it was working at the start, except that it got noisier due to more vibrations. Therefore, I decided to let it be and continue using it. After awhile, I noticed that my fan would move further and further away, due to these vibrations. Being the genius that I am, or at least I thought I was, I put my bag to lessen the fans movements, so that it would stay put next to me. Everything was fine until… *boom!!!* I didn’t know what happened at first, just that I heard a loud explosion. I turned around, half thinking that the explosion came from another room, but this was what I saw…

So you see, now we know why you should not use a fan if one of it’s blades is broken! The explosion threw bits of the blades around my room, and I’m quite surprise I’m still alive to be typing this post here. The next time you see you should be thankful that I’m still able to spend time with you, and was not stabbed to death by flying blades of a fan. I will be thankful that I’m still able to be with you still, and not stabbed to death by flying blades of a fan. Jokes aside, my fan is resting in pieces, my aircon is leaking, life sucks for me. Go shopping for a new fan anyone?
