Epic Fail: School service providers for my child's new school

We had decided to move our eldest child from his nearby progressive school to a traditional Chinese school.  After going through all the trouble of paying for his tuition, buying his books, and other things, we came upon an unexpected problem.  We couldn't find a school service provider that would take him in.

No matter what I did all I came upon was a blank wall. One provider said he was already full.  Another said that it was out of his route.  And a third said that our house was too far.  So many reasons for not taking our child into their care..  It was all so stressful!  It even came to a point wherein I was looking for an apartment just so we could be close to the school!  In the end, we decided to withdraw our child's enrollment and asked for a refund.  Fortunately the school agreed after we returned the books and a processing fee was paid.  Thank goodness they were accommodating!

We've decided to bring our child back to his old school.  At least he won't have to go through a period of adjustment anymore since he'll be seeing his old classmates and teachers.  That and the school is just a short walk from our house.  This must be God's will.  There was just nothing I could do against it!  Ahahahaha.  This might be for the best, so I'll chalk this one up to the big guy up there..  I learned a whole lot from all this despite the challenges it posed.

And now, let's go back to school!  =)
