QOTN: I'm an interesting case since I can't hear a thing when i'm sleeping thanks to my lack of hearing. I can tell you though that some days when i'm woken up it takes a good 20 minutes to actually get me out of the bed and other times I can jump out and am ready for the day.

Same here.

Because of that, I am very sensitive to movement and vibration, so if a truck goes by that shakes my house, or if friends are over and they are moving around, I can feel it and it wakes me up, but noise doesn't tend to do a thing when I'm completely asleep.

Depends on how tired I am.

Light! I can hear a single little noise and bam! I'm looking around hehe. Must be that Marine in me. I can go to bed anywhere from 8 to 12pm and I still awake at 5am, my internal alarm always awakes me.

I'm a heavy sleeper. I'll sleep through almost anything. Countless times I've been asked if I heard some crazy commotion and my response is always, "I slept straight through the night."

That being said, I will wake up if someone just suddenly creeps up to my bed. It's happened quite a few times. Thankfully, it's for good reasons and not because someone was trying to kill me.

So it's a weird one for me. I think I'll sleep through anything my mind accepts as being non-threatening, but once there is a noise or presence that might be reason for alarm I will awake immediately.
