[edit] The Birth of Cool
Born January 1st 1988, Michael Gerard McDonald was a fighter, 3 months and 19 days premature he sure managed to put a stop to all hogmanay celebrations. East Glamorgan Hospital was the environment to which he was born. Named Michael as they thought he was going to die he had a head like an orange and weighed the same as a bag of sugar. Grew up against all odds, he resides in the pretty little village of Church. Brother to a brother and a sister and son to a mother and a father, he was in every sense of the word a good kid. At the age of 18 the self proclaimed best export from Scotland since the Proclaimers plays a major part in society influencing all aspects with his power and intellect.
[edit] Starting Up
Punching above his weight the little shy half scottish half welsh kid got sent to playgroup, as an area to act shy in and at times dislike, this wee man believed in bannanas. If he didnt have a bannana he couldnt go, so therefore, before 11 o'clock everyday he would hide them, usually all in the same place, but what the heck, he was only little. After many weeks or even months he started to enjoy this little folks social gathering and left in 1992 with the proud title of being the boy that the goat pissed on. He has the video to prove it, if you want to watch it anytime.
[edit] The Middle Ages
Starting at St Michaels Primary in September 1992, he was still much the same kid as he was, quite short quite shy, but at times amazingly funny for such a short person. Stupidly frightened of some teachers and dinner ladies (even though his own mother was one) he remained the quiet kid all through his primary schooled life, but was once again attacked by animals. This time the school hamster, after being coaxed by a teacher to remove it from its cage, the little blighter bit the other little blighters finger much to the annoyance of the teacher who blamed our hero for messing with it. Our hero was once again attacked not in the name of pet care, but science after being armed with spades and carrier bags he and his comrades set about scaling the fence to the park to get a prime specimen of a buttercup with roots intact. Never fearless he unwisely started digging around the penalty spot for the fine specimen which he got, but unaware of the old git shouting abuse at him from beyond the fence. When our hero realised, his "friends" had left him with seven spades and a fence to climb, but do not fear readers he made it! He left the most primative of primary schools being underated as usual and with some reasonably good at the time sat grades, but it wasnt as if he gave a shit.
[edit] On To New Heights
Our hero reached the dizzy new heights of Cardinal Newman School at a ripe old age of 11. Armed with a sharp wit and sharp tongue he was leader of the pack. Uniting all nations or rather primary schools he was a social genius. Michael brought an amazing amount of intellect to school, with which he has shared with his loyal friends Greg Gardner, Gareth Morris, Daley Nixon, James Stafford (User talk:James Stafford), etc. These “Band of Brothers” have shared many trips together from Abergavenny to Michael’s spiritual home, Berlin! These trips have enabled these boys to enjoy each other’s company. Michael reached his pinnacle in 2004 with amazing GCSE Results and well as being appointed a Sixth Form Councillor, but in 2005, he was controversially and surprisingly snubbed for the position of Head Boy and Deputy. Later this year, they hope he will resurrect his career as a Sixth Form Councillor once again.
[edit] Bringing Culture and Quality
Michael brings his own brand of Eastern European and Asian flavour to Sixth Form at Cardinal Newman, with his genre-spanning interest in music and film, particularly German Industrial and Asian cinema. His alternative music taste has been instrumential in culturally shaping the musical output of the Sixth Form Common Room, to the infuration of many popular music purists and hard rock fanatics. Also a tartan asia extremist, he likes nothing better than to sit down infront of his tv to watch some superb asian film of his choosing.
[edit] At Present
Michael currently loves in Church Village, Rhondda Cynon Taff and continues to indulge himself in literature such as the work of Len Deighton, old and contemporary film with work ranging from Darren Aronfosky to Robert Rodriguez aswell as his fantantical interest in the musical world owning a collection of work from artists such as Miles Davies to Johnny Cash to Devendra Banhart to Einsturzende Neubauten. He is studying A-level Mathematics, History, Physics and Geography looking to a career in engineering after University.
