A Bit About Me

Hi, I’m Keysa! 21 (as of 2024) and always on the hunt for cosy nooks and stylish places! Designing my own life with a dash of creativity and a hint of craziness. I’m here to share the little joys that make life sweet :) 

• I grew up in BSD, Tangerang Selatan, Jakarta, an area less crowded and more peaceful compared to the city centre, akin to Mont Kiara in Kuala Lumpur.
• I enjoyed exploring restaurants and cafes in Jakarta, a passion that continues in Malaysia.
• I frequently explore PJ, KL, and Subang, with KL being a favourite for food hunting and art exhibitions.
• There are some very obvious cultural differences I noticed personally between Malaysia and Indonesian Muslim.
• Firstly, the differences between Bahasa Malaysia (BM) and Bahasa Indonesia (BI) are notable. 
• BM is easier to pick up due to contextual clues and familiarity with BM cartoons from my childhood. BM has more slang used by youth groups.
• Malaysia is more open-minded regarding self-expression and freedom of speech.
• Malaysia's legal system is more Muslim centric, whereas Indonesia, despite being conservative, is less religiously strict for Muslims.
• In my opinion, Indonesia is catching up with Malaysia in city infrastructure but the traffic management among other areas still needs improvement

Educational Journey

• Primary and Secondary Education
  • I attended the private school Binus Serpong for primary education and had many friends from government schools.
  • Indonesian government schools have different grading levels, with passing marks at 50% compared to 60-75% in private/international schools.
  • Private schools offer higher quality education, particularly in English proficiency.
  • Attending an international high school exposed me to Western influences and media through the Cambridge syllabus.
  • I participated in extracurricular activities focused on community causes, such as beach cleaning projects.
  • My parents chose private education to secure my chances of studying abroad.
• Higher Education
  • At 18, I enrolled at One Academy Malaysia to study Interior Design.
  • I encountered a language barrier initially, but adjusted quickly after six months.
  • The coursework is intensive, with a focus on training over social interaction, suitable for introverted students.
  • The campus, located in an office tower, limits facilities but provides a high-standard, industry-based syllabus that prepares students for their careers.
  • I’ve learned that passion is crucial in Interior Designing, I find there is a noticeable difference in output when comparing when the output was created with genuine emotion. 

Skills and Interests

• I started gaining popularity on TikTok with aesthetic cafe reviews, connecting my passion for interior design and art.
• Understanding audience preferences, such as video pace and shooting style, comes from being in the same age group as the predominant users.
• How I started initially was to reach out to outlets/shops via Facebook, Instagram, but the operators now approach me due to the success of my content.
• Success in content creation is driven by aesthetic taste, staying on top of social media trends, and associating with like-minded individuals.
• The challenges include maintaining dedication and consistency to engage the audience daily or weekly, staying on trend and finding a specialty are crucial for relevance and understanding viewer perspectives to grow your channel.
• My shooting style is behind the camera, often using friends as models.
