How lightly I sleep, as Molly has discovered, varies. It depends a great deal on where I am and how tired I am. For instance, while at the dorms I found that I sometimes have to be able to get up in the middle of the night at the sound of a doorknock, in which cases I generally wake up easily, which means that I wake up everytime someone in my area slams a door which can be, to put it mildly, annoying.
At the other end of the spectrum, I have the time when I went home right after the finals and slept through a thunderstorm and my mother's coming in to add more blankets on top of me without knowing a thing. By the general rules I sleep lightly when I'm in some place unfamiliar (as we all tend to do, to varying degrees). My trend here at college is mostly waking-up more by default but if things happen and I get too tired I'm liable to sleep through the entire night, therefore possibly forcing Molly to spend the night somewhere else had she forgotten her key.
I'm trying to figure out if I have a way of tuning to a specific frequency when I'm asleep. It's theoretically possible, but I have no idea how to train myself to do it.
