How dorky am I?

(Click on picture to enlarge)

Can you spot me in this picture? This was the Upper Six class of 1990 at The British School in The Netherlands taken just before we did our A-Levels examinations. Hemm, my secret crush is also in this picture... he he he. Never told him that I had a crush on him, so he never knew about it. Which one do you think he is? *wink*

P/S Thanks Dominic, for forwarding me this picture, I lost my copy amidst my moving around all these years. By the way, Dominic wasn't my secret crush though he is a very good friend. ;-)

you're the one in the bottom row, middle, white red+blue sweater.
Your crush? hm.... the guy in suspenders? he looks kinda italian (knowing your taste for italian men *wink*)

Sorry Elisa,

Wrong on both accounts tho you are right about the "taste for Italian men"..he he he. Err check my comment to Raggedyanne on the blog "Seronok ke tinggal kat US?"? About me being taller than Jim?.. That is a clue *wink*

The gal in the white+red+blue sweater is Clare Simpson and I think she's English. I can't remember the name of the guy in suspenders but I believe he's from South Africa. Dominic, do you remember his name? Wan Chik (my aunt) too thought that he's my crush...Aiyo

Alamak Elisa, sorry the gal in white+red+blue sweater is actually Izzy Mota and she's either Spanish or Portugese (I think). Clare Simpson is the one sitting to Izzy's left (our right)

Kak Teh

ouh, i had fun doing this guessing game! and my 1st guess was the guy in suspenders too! haha maybe coz he was the most stylo among them. but since it's not him, i'm taking your clue and ASSUME that you like shorter guys, so maybe it's that ben stiller lookalike in the red sweater? haha just a wild guess, i hope there's a prize!

i thought you were the one in the middle too, but i didn't look close enough, at the right side of the photo, until kak teh pointed out the real you :D

Shirin said...

Raggedyanne,
Yup, that's me on the right side of the picture, wearing white button-down shirt with black jeans. We all semua about 18/19 masa ni so manala nah stylishnye. Well, at least we thought we were. Oh the style that time...

I just remember, the guy in suspender's name is Nick. Can't remember his last name. And the guy is red sweater with the yellow square is John Symes. John, someone thinks you look like Ben Stiller!!! *wink* ;-).

No Raggedyanne, it's not John. Though someone recently told me in confidence that dia suka kat I dulu... which I suspected but had no prove. Tah macam mana, I selalu hilang my buku economics, and always end up with him...hemmmm

Anyways, here's another clue. My secret crush is on that side of the picture (left). So, John is out, that leaves about 9 more guys there...

Good luck!!!

if a guy goes through the trouble to 'steal' ur book in hope that you'll find it with him, that's enuff proof my dear! hehe

urgh, i shall not rest until i find out who he is! issit the guy with the blond mullet, standing most left on the second row? he looks intense...

Shirin said...

Raggedyanne,
That was what one of my friends told me... he he he. Nah, the guy on the far left beside John tu is Jonathan Danson. Tu my sister punya crush (shush don't tell her I told you) but you are getting close. In fact very very very close... (remember, dia rendah dari I) *wink*

nuhaafnan said...

okay, this is my last try. is he the one sitting with his arms crossed, second from left? coz he was 'very very close, and errr... shorter? if its not him, i've no idea!!

Shirin said...

Aiyo Raggedyanne...no, he he he

Oklah, he's the one standing in the middle row, 4th from the left, pakai specs, navy blue sweater with grey collared shirt. Selang satu dari John (red sweater). Namanya Flavio Galanti.

Sorry la no present but I give you 100% for efford *wink*.
