Where In The World You Can Find The Best Schools — And The Happiest Kids
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s triennial international survey compared test scores from 65 countries.
Happiness was ranked based on the percentage of students who agreed or disagreed with the statement “I feel happy at school.”
Test scores were ranked based on the combined individual rankings of the students’ math, reading, and science scores.
So... can you see where's Malaysia being ranked? (:

Alfalfa Complex
Apa itu Alfalfa?
Diperbuat daripada tanaman Alfalfa (Medicago Sativa) secara organik di California yang bebas dari pestisid, herbasid dan menggunakan bahan kompos/baja bebas kimia. Alfalfa juga dikenali sebagai "Raja Segala Tumbuhan". Medicago Sativa memiliki gred yang paling tinggi di kalangan tumbuhan alfalfa. Tumbuhan ini mengambil masa sekurangnya 2 tahun untuk membesar dan akarnya boleh mencapai sehingga 20 kaki ke dalam tanah untuk menyerap pelbagai nutrisi.
Daun alfalfa dari Shaklee hanya dituai apabila ia telah mencapai tahap kematangan mutlak. Daun alfalfa yang telah matang kaya dengan klorofil. Daun-daun ini dikeringkan dengan udara secara semulajadi bagi mengekalkan nutrisi yang terkandung di dalamnya. Manakala bahagian lain yang tidak penting dilupuskan. Kemudian, daun-daun yang telah dikeringkan akan dibiarkan menjadi serbuk sebelum dikompres menjadi tablet. Keseluruhan proses ini dijalankan dibawah pengawasan dan kawalan Shaklee yang sangat ketat dan teliti. Setiap tablet mengandungi 300mg alfalfa.

Pneumococcal, true story
Salam mommie,
Harini saya nak share true story berkenaan dengan bahaya Pneumococcal disease. Ya, panjang pendek nyawa tu di tangan Allah S.W.T, tapi kita sebagai mommy & daddy kepada anak kita mestilah mahu yang terbaik untuk anak kita. Usaha itu penting, yang lain kita berserah kepada Allah. Doa & usaha untuk beri yang terbaik kepada anak-anak.
Bolehlah baca berkenaan dengan kesan Pneumococcal disease di sini. Mommy kepada arwah Aqil Hamzah ada post in details perjalanan beliau sekeluarga ketika saat menangani Pneumococcal ni. Sedih bila baca blog Cerita Erina.
Terbayang muka cheeky Adellia bila senyum. Terbayang demand manja suruh angkat bila tak ada orang nak layan. Terbayang seronoknya Adellia bila mandi. Terbayang tiap-tiap malam tanpa fail bangun berjaga nak bagi susu & melayan kerenah pukul 3,4 pagi. Tak dapat nak bayang jika Allah uji macam mommy Erina. Ya Allah.
Harapnya ramai mommies di luar sana sedar dengan bahaya Pneumococcal dan mula ambil tindakan. Kosnya yang agak mahal jika dibandingkan dengan cucuk yang lain. Range dalam RM180-RM300. Tak apa, boleh consult doktor masing-masing bila dicadangkan untuk ambil Pneumococcal vaccine ni & bolehlah plan kewangan masing-masing jika perlu. Untuk kos yang lebih murah, cuba pergi ke klinik-klinik biasa. So far yang saya survey dalam RM180 sahaja. If pergi ke klinik yang besar sikit kosnya mungkin lebih mahal. Berbaloi dengan masa menunggu dan keselesaan yang diberikan, insyaAllah.
Disini saya share sekali harga untuk Pneumococcal vaccine yang saya copy dari blog mommy Erina & juga tambahan daripada klinik/hospital yang saya sendiri survey.

Rotavirus. Is your baby at risk?
What is rotavirus?
Rotavirus is an extremely common and easy-to-catch virus that can lead to serious consequences. It causes an illness of the intestines called gastroenteritis.
Rotavirus is a leading cause of severe diarrhea in young children. If your baby gets sick with rotavirus, symptoms may come on suddenly and usually begin with fever, vomiting, and upset stomach, followed by watery diarrhea that can last from 3 to 9 days.
Many rotavirus cases are relatively mild while some are severe. In a severe case, a child may vomit or have diarrhea more than 20 times in a day. Because your baby is so small, these symptoms can quickly lead to a loss of body fluids called dehydration.
In some cases, dehydration can be life threatening. An infant or toddler may need to be treated for dehydration with intravenous (IV) fluids in a hospital.
Some cases of rotavirus can be treated at home. The child is given fluids to replace those lost through diarrhea and vomiting. Severe vomiting, however, can make this difficult.
How do babies get rotavirus?
Rotavirus is easily spread through contaminated hands or objects and can survive for long periods of time on ordinary home surfaces. Since only certain disinfectants kill rotavirus, and many common soaps don't work, it's possible for everyone in the household to be infected.
How To Keep Rotavirus From Spreading
To help control the spread of rotavirus, cleanliness and good hygiene should be maintained in your home, as well as in day cares and preschools which are high-risk areas for rotavirus.
Is your baby at risk?
Because it is so easy to catch and can be serious, every parent with an infant or young child should know about rotavirus. If your baby has a severe case of rotavirus it can quickly lead to a loss of body fluids called dehydration, which can be life threatening. Your doctor can't predict which babies will have serious cases of rotavirus.
Your child is at risk because rotavirus:
- affects children of every ethnic group, culture, and economic status
- occurs regardless of quality of water, food, or sanitation
- is a common cause of diarrhea in infants and young children in the United States
- has been shown to pass from member to member of a family regardless of age
- historically was responsible for more than 400,000 physician visits, more than 200,000 emergency department (ED) visits, 55,000 to 70,000 hospitalizations, and 20 to 60 deaths each year in the United States
Talk to your baby's doctor
Almost all children are infected with rotavirus by 5 years of age. Most severe cases occur in children between 6 months and 2 years of age. Talk with your doctor if you have any questions about rotavirus.
Here are some questions that can help you discuss rotavirus with your child's doctor.

Rotavirus & Pneumococcal Vaccine
Salam mommies.. Right after office hour at 5pm we immediately drive to Bangi for Adellia's appointment with Dr Nazim at Az-Zahra clinic for her pneumococcal vaccine. It has been long due since we 1st decided to give her the vaccine.
She'll turn 6 month this coming Sunday (Jan 5th,2014) and she'll start her school session on Monday after a month break with Aunty Tirah. Hence for me it is better to give Adellia her 1st shot of pneumococcal vaccine before sending her to school. She has already had her rotavirus when she was 2 month old. Dr Nazim advice to give her 2nd shot of rotavirus together with pneumococcal vaccine. We agreed.
When I came home I texted a friend of mine recommending her son to take the same vaccine. She replied: rotavirus is haram as it contains pig virus DNA. Right away I started google-ing. There are so many articles supported the fact that it has pig virus DNA and how much important this vaccine to protect our children from rotavirus. But as a Muslim of course this raise concern. Why both of my baby's doctors didn't notify us first? (Adellia had her 1st & 2nd shot with different doctors, and both are Muslims)
Hence, I've tried to make my own research and it seems like the doctors & 'doctors' has a lot of different opinion. For me this is one of the best opinion which I have read so far. You may visit Dr Zubaidi here.
To conclude, please seek your doctor's advice, raise this DNA issue and see what he/she responses.
