Are You Sure About This?: Sabahtime sadness

The obligatory 'feet at the holiday destination' picture.

Life is full of ups and downs. Everyone knows that. Sometimes, the good and bad happen near simultaneously or they alternate in quick succession. The following is such a story of ups and downs. However, we'll focus on the bad stuff because a series of unfortunate events makes for a better story. So it goes, four dashing heroes embark on a quest. A quest to seek the fabled treasures of "relaxation" and "chill". One of the members of this intrepid expedition is the author.

Its actually a bit tedious to write in story form so here it is in list form:

Day 1
1) Woke up later than expected.
2) Started packing late as a result and left home later than expected as a result of this.
3) Got lost on the way to friend's house, somehow entered KLCC parking.
4) Shortly before taking the train to the airport, I slipped and tripped. Got some cuts and bruises on my hands and forearms. Also ruined my trousers.
5) After checking in, walked to our boarding gate at the far end of the airport. Only to discover it had been changed to literally the other end of the airport.
6) Once we reached that gate, our flight was re-timed to 2.5 hours later.

Day 2
1) Went island hopping and snorkeling. Lost the mouth piece while swimming, had to find it or another random one. Otherwise, would have to pay for losing it. So instead of enjoying the calm blue sea and fishies, I was looking for a snorkel piece. Didn't find any valuable pearls either.
2) Forgot my phone was in my pocket, went snorkeling.
3) Friend said it was a good thing, like a digital detox treatment. I was never a phone addict in the first place. We're not friends any more.
4) One friend bought chicken butts on a stick at the pasar malam. Told me it was regular fillets. There's nothing wrong with chicken butts. I just discovered I didn't like them that night.

Day 3
1) Went to a dairy farm, they had a froyo station. They ran out of chocolate froyo. OUT OF CHOCOLATE!
2) Got trolled into eating another chicken butt. Jerk.

Day 4
1) Interacted with a ancestral/hero stone. Did not receive a +5 to health and stamina regen stats.
2) During lunch, wanted to go to this local cuisine joint, eat the real stuff. Went there, it was closed even though the business hours sign indicated it should be open. Paid 2 bucks for parking for 11 minutes. Missed out on some gastronomic culture.
3) Drove out to look for some other place to eat. Found a fast-food place about 100 metres away. Parked the car back in the same spot we left just 5 minutes ago. Paid 2 bucks yet again.
4) At that fast food place, after ordering they give you this electronic puck that beeps and lights up when your order is done so you can go collect it. After all my friends already got their food, the staff came to the table told me to get my order, because my puck was not working.
5) Hoped my phone would have dried out and be able to switch on. Nope.
6) Flight back home was delayed by a half hour.

General
1) Had to play camera man for one of the guys for four days straight.
2) One friend suddenly discovered some unknown heritage, spoke with a "local" accent for four days straight. No one bought it. He kept getting mistaken for a Filipino.
3) Lots of dabbing.

Some of the things on this list are meant as jokes but rest assured, everything on here did actually happen one way or another. All in all though, it was a good trip. If you have not been to Sabah (or Sarawak) 9/10 would recommend.

Warning: many badly captioned pictures ahead.
