Shambolic
This word is used a lot here and I love it. It means: chaotic, disorganized, or mismanaged. So a lot of what happens at Stormont is shambolic.
I've figured out I have six papers due in January, two in the 4,000-word range. Given how much time I spent on the 1,200 word papers, I realize I need to start working on these six papers NOW. But how to keep up with readings for classes? One of the four classes I'm working on right now assigned an entire book--260 pages, in addition to four other readings. I think 3 hours here, 4 hours there is pretty shambolic. I need to think in terms of 8-hour days, five days a week.
