Apologies.

I apologize to all the realdudes that read the blog. I started medical school last Monday, and I am currently swimming in Anatomy Ocean (and will be for the next ten weeks), trying to stay afloat, slowly swimming to the shoreline...

And in that process, I have greatly neglected the precious blog that we started a year ago. Unfortunately, I will be forced to neglect it for another two months. I apologize dearly. It has been my goal since I was 5 years old to become a doctor. I know nothing else, and I owe every single person that has supported me throughout my life to give this opportunity of a lifetime the best effort I can. Thank you all for the support.

I'd like to thank every single person that has ever read the blog, posted on here, referred the blog to someone else, or just even listened to us talking about the blog. We had this idea a year ago of being able to share interesting articles with our friends instead of mass emailing them about it. Hence, the "1stop". All articles we post are tiny fragments of knowledge that make up the unimaginably complex yet beautiful mind of a real dude. And if no one understood before, the term "realdude" knows no gender. It just means an intelligent stand up person.

115 labels, 909 articles posted, in one year-simply amazing what a few dedicated people can do.

I hope that the rest of the dedicated authors will find some spare time to post articles. It doesn't have to be frequent, but I would hate for our "little corner in the internet" fizzle out. I will post weekly whether or not anyone continues to visit the site.


Thank you all for bringing our idea to fruition. It would have been impossible without you. Thank you for being a real dude, thank you for the support, and regardless of whether or not this blog exists, continue to shine brilliantly like the stars you all are-because realdudes are the future leaders of the world.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the support.

Shout out to the circle of willis shown in the picture.

Listen to the song, it describes our endeavors.



"We are always running for the thrill of it, thrill of it
Always pushing up the hill searching for the thrill of it
On and on and on we are calling out and out again
Never looking down, I'm just in awe of what's in front of me"
