It's halfway through the second semester. This means housing is right around the corner and no one is ready. Friends are scrambling to find roommates and making more problems than they are creating solutions. Here are 11 Spongebob GIFs that accurately represent how the housing application process works:

1. Learning about housing.

Ah yes, the beginning. Everyone is excited and learning about how this year's battle will be fought. First-year students who think they're pros of the world are in no way prepared for what is to come. For now, we just sit in anticipation.

2. Finding a roommate.

You think you have your life figured out until you have to figure out who you're going to live with next year. All friend groups are scrambling and no one is safe. People are calling dibs and friends are realizing they're more different than alike.

3. Picking between groups.

Once you narrow your options, you have to decide which group you could actually live with. Although friends are great people to spend time with, it is not always the easiest to live with them. This, of course, creates more problems.

4. Looking at potential options.

You think you know what you want until you go on a housing crawl. You get to see all potential housing for the following years to come. It only makes picking that much harder.

5. Figuring out where to live.

You think that since you finally have a roommate, you can settle. However, this is a complete lie. Once you find one person to live with, you need to decide whether or not you are living on your own in a dorm or with a group in a suite or house. So, the next question is, who is worthy?

6. Seniors watching from a distance.

Congrats, you finally made it and never have to deal with another housing raffle at school. But joke's on you...have fun in the real world. We salute you!

7. Waiting for a raffle time.

This is it. Everything is figured out, but it could all come crashing down before your eyes if no one in your group gets an early time slot to pick. All there is to do now is wait.

8. Getting a raffle time.

Finally, everyone is assigned a time to pick next semester housing. Let's just say some people are happy, and others are not.

9. Choosing housing.

This is it. There is no way to screw up past this point. You just have to see if you actually get the accommodations you are banking on. Get online first or wait for that text from your friends telling you that you got what you wanted.

10. Internet crashing mid-selection.

Of course, nothing would be complete without the Internet crashing down on all dreams you have. It may screw up your first option, but that's why you always need a backup.

11. Finally done.

You have suffered, lost friends, made new ones, and survived. Whether you got the housing you wanted or not, at least it's over. Congratulate yourself for surviving the housing process...until you have to do it again next year.
