In front of the curtain in your case.

I remember the first time I flew First was on an Emirates flight HKG-DXB-LHR when I was 14, coming back from a visit to my grand-parents. I was actually meant to be traveling economy, but I managed to get myself a seat by the emergency exit (this was just after online check-in had been released on Emirates).
When I got on the flight I was told that there must have been a mistake and that I wasn't actually allowed to sit by the exits as a minor. I was then asked if I would mind coming up to the front of the plane so the cabin crew could keep an eye on me. I was happy to oblige - to make their lives easier - the service and the seat of course had nothing to do with it.

What made things even better for me was the fact that it was typhoon season in Hong Kong and so my flight had been delayed by three hours, meaning I missed my LHR connection. I was hooked up in the airport hotel and got a whole load of miles to boot.

I think that is the most memorable part of the whole vacation. You know your life is sad when you remember more about getting to the country than the country itself...
