The photo is just like the ones we have from our school days. Where was it taken? The haiku/serenyu says it all.
A real treasure. I wonder if I can guess which one you are? Not by chance, the distracted boy at the back? Or perhaps the happy chappie with the shoulder-tilt?
The haiku is a winner.

Funny. I have one of those too. I was sooooo short I was in the center of the front row. None of us looked happy.
