Sometimes things get a little hard. I mean economically hard I know everyone is struggling with the fucked up shit that is happening with the economy and all.
But sometimes don't you all feel like loosing all hope. I mean you try to so hard looking applying for a job in over 50 places but not a single call form them. Is especially hard for a teen, you don't have much experience so they just over look you. More so when you look like a 13 year old no mater how much make up and "grown up" clothes you wear.
-Sigh- Sometimes I feel like screaming to the universe "Hey what the fuck do you want me to do, I can't move forward, with out money I can't move, I'm trying my damn hardest studying my ass off getting a perfect score and how am I been rewarded for my hard work, with debts to my family and myself, so please do me a favor and help me out here"
I'm really frustrated right now.

UNO Puerto Rican style
Normal UNO playing is fine. But when you're playing with Puerto Ricans (by my standards) is way more fun than the normal way one should play the game.
The rules are basically the same as normal UNO, the only difference are a few additional rules. Here goes:
1. We call it "Descarga" or discharge in English. There are two types of "Descargas" One is by Number the other is by colors.
2. By numbers We mean that if you have 2+ different color card but with the same number or shape lets say for example #8 card and you have a green and blue 8, you can place both cards at the same time. (PS. Same color with the same number or shape card also apply in this discharge.)
3. In the event that one can not change the color or does not have the shape or number card on display one he/she must keep drawing from the draw deck until him/she get the card possible to make his/her turn.
4. In the event that UNO is called on someone but he/she dose not have UNO the caller must draw 7 cards.(I think this is standard I'm not quite sure).
5. Here the fun part, Draw two's the players can put their draw two's preventing them from drawing the amount of cards it stop when someone places a wild draw 4 and the next player has no wild draw 4. ( I think is should be done this way but sometimes we keep going when the person who put the wild draw 4 call a color and he/she has a draw two of the called color) When I played and this happened we've gone up to draw 47 cards that wild.
6. "Descarga de colores" Discharge of colors. This one is sometimes neglected since the game ends too quickly. The basic is trow all the cards with the same color as the display.
7. You are only able to change the color by the number or symbol card.
Basically "Descarga" of Numbers is more fun since the game can be prolonged for more than 30 minutes until all the players have discarded all their cards.
If I can get my hands on a camcorder I will upload a video on how we play this game.
