Where Were You in the 1970s, We See You, Sam! ?

Racing your rusty bike like a madman through the streets of Vientiane, or trying not to laugh as your French teacher conjugated avoir in the passé simple?
Well, take a good look!

– Front row: 8th from the right… or maybe 12th from the left? (We know you *still* mix up left and right, even in gym class.)
– Second row: 5th from the left… the one who looks lost in thought, staring at the horizon—or just got scolded for doodling an elephant in their notebook.

So, who is it?
Billy, the marble champion and hide-and-seek king?
Jamie, the master of teacher impressions that had everyone in stitches?
Lily, the queen of perfect braids and whispered secrets?
John, the only one who could recite Lao poetry on demand ?
Or Sam, the only one who always had a spotless shirt (making the rest of us look like wild savages)?
