I almost don’t have the guts to crawl back into blog writing. Let’s do a recap of the year that technically didn’t happen. Warning, photos are unedited, it maybe triggering.
Insane adult break out, painful deep liaison acne
Wow, they were painful! My face was literally burning all the time and I was struggling to sleep. It has to be aging or something. They just flared up like hives. I was totally flabbergasted that I get pimples at my age.
The craziest part was when I did share bare face photos on IG, many replied by saying that I was brave lol. It’s just acne, no courage or effort needed. For instance, in the same logic, doesn’t it take courage for people who edit/filter their photos to meet people in real life? Why don’t people not call them brave?
Arn’t nobody need courage to show some pimples, ok. They’re just pimples.
I tried a bunch of different remedies and skincare. The most effective by far was just taking zinc supplement and use some salicylic products. Problem solved. Well, mostly solved, I still get the occasional breakout, but they’re not painful ones any more. I am already super happy.
Besides, unless I have a lot discolouration on my face, how can I show off my “magical” makeup skills? lol
Men don’t like to shower amplified during the lockdown
Given that I only went out every 14 -21 days during the lockdown. I did my grocery with vigour. lol. Shower, body scrub, shave, makeup, hair, nails, parfum etc. The only thing that I didn’t do was false lashes. I think I put in more effort than I did for my matric dance (senior year prom).
However, many men in my neighbourhood evidently did not share my enthusiasm. Many looked and smell like they have been living on a deserted island for months. Did I mention the semi-homeless odour? We’re in Paris, the capital for goodness sake. What’s up with the lack of personal hygiene? Normally, I can’t smell anything when I wear a mask, but these guys must have been saving water by NOT washing themselves for days. I was technically saved by the mask, can you imagine having a just a whiff without one?
Sunscreen empties going no where
Hi, my name is Joyce and I am a hoarder. That’s right, I still went through 10+ bottles of sunscreen per year during the pandemic / lockdown. I intended to do a sunscreen review thing again, but never did it. Voila, here I am with a bunch of trash at home.
Admit defeat with my guasha stone side hustle
I simply cannot deal with the type of BS marketing that’s people are putting out. For the last time, stop using the guasha stone on your face. “Effective” guasha session means releasing “sha” aka red dots. Does anyone want red dot on their face? I think not.
Yes, my https://joyceb.fr site is still around, but I haven’t updated it or anything. Literally will only sell to people that I know now. There is a fine line between selling a good pitch vs selling BS lies. I don’t want to cross that line, so I admit defeat and called it a day.
Missed out on an important friend’s wedding
The pandemic was just earth shattering. Enough said.
Picnic indoor
Yup, that’s right. During the lockdown, hubby and I came up with indoor picnic. Full effort: the picnic mat on the floor. We have no balcony, this was sheer desperation. We enjoyed it nonetheless.
Scored my first ever A grade in a language exam
Average 18/20 for my French at university, I wanted to cry from disbelief. That’s 90%! French is my 6th language that I learn at a formal institution. Never in my life have I ever scored beyond a C for any other language. I am still living my OMG moment.
Note to myself: Demon be gone to those teachers who told me multiple times that I have no linguistic talent. Disparaging comment that I never forget. What kind of educator say that to a teenage student?
Rise of Kingdom addiction (mobile game)
Do not start playing this game! It is sooooo addictive. I started playing ROK when the lockdown started… I am still playing it religiously. I have alarms and chat app just to play ROK. It is an all immersive community / strategy gaming experience. Like we have “townhall” meetings, officer rotation, spreadsheet, statistics and “elections” etc. Thinking back, I woke up at 3h00 to participate in a group battle while listening to vocal instruction from our warlord…
Currently, I am rehabilitating myself by decreasing gaming time.
Kimono project
Had so many train smashes already. I am amazed that I haven’t given up yet. Catastrophe number 1, when I started, Japan closed its borders, the kimono cannot be imported. Er… that was… What’s a kimono project going to do without the kimono? lol
Decided to not sit and to mope about a problem that is out of my control, so I started Kikitaru by making and selling Japanese fabric goods. Zero factory involved. I made everything from my lounge. What is hilarious was that many of my ex-colleagues and suppliers who have known me for over 10+ years only realised that I can sew and make paper patterns recently lol.
Straight out of the lockdown, I did some artisan markets and now in the middle of an application to open up a physical boutique in central Paris. Fingers crossed that all goes well. I must say that I am very proud of how far I have came with this project. https://www.kikitaru.com
…. That’s way more words that I anticipated. I will stop here. So yes, many things have happened. How about you? Anything major during these lost years?

The 3-step backlinking method
Phase 1 – Standard external links.
Stage 2 – Links via 301 redirects from top-tier sites with PR 9–10, for example –
Step 3 – Listing on SEO analysis platforms –
The advantage of link analysis platforms is that they show the Google search engine a site map, which is crucial!
Clarification for the third stage – only the main page of the site is added to analyzers, internal pages aren’t accepted.
I complete all three stages step by step, resulting in 10K–20K backlinks from the three stages.
This backlink strategy is the best approach.
Example of placement on SEO platforms via a .txt document.

Smart DNS
SmartStreaming.TV: the clever option to access your beloved content anywhere
Nowadays, we consume series, films and songs from almost any device: laptops, Smart TVs, video game systems, streaming devices and even cell phones.
However, anyone who has left their country knows how unpleasant it can be to check into a hotel or an airport and realize that the catalog we enjoy at home is not available in another country.
This is where SmartStreaming.TV proves its value, a tool developed to make your entertainment travel with you.
How does SmartStreaming.TV work?
Applications detect your location through the network address of your device. This means that, based on your geographic location, you may have permission to view (or restrictions) to certain collections of movies, shows or real-time streams.
The approach of SmartStreaming.TV is simple but powerful: the system protects your real location and provides you an IP address in the country where the content is available. In this way, you can enter your series, films and services as if you stayed at home, no matter in which place you are.
Security, speed, and legality
One of the most common concerns when discussing this type of service is whether it is secure or valid. In the case of SmartStreaming.TV, the answer is straightforward: of course.
The system works through a protocol called Smart DNS, which does not store your personal data or affect your connection. It is fast, secure and 100% legal.
In addition, unlike other methods that are more advanced, you don’t need to use complex apps or alter your computer deeply. The configuration is quick and adapted to most modern devices.
Ideal for those who travel
If you travel for work, study abroad or simply like visiting new places, SmartStreaming.TV proves to be an indispensable ally.
You will no longer stress over missing the latest episode of your favorite show or not being able to watch a game broadcast.
In short, SmartStreaming.TV makes your content really international: wherever you are, access to your programming will be within easy reach.
