This is the story about one of my colleague and he told me that he requires complete silence to sleep which is little difficult in India but I'll discuss about these factors some other time.
He told me that he cannot even bear the sound of tick tick from the wall clock that he always remove the battery from the clock and sleep after that.
I find it funny and amusing because I never did that in my life.
Do you require complete silence to sleep?

I can understand why he removes the battery so he can sleep. I would love silence except for my white noise machines, but, do not get it here. It is very noisy here.

Yes I do. I am just like your colleague, I can't bear any noise while sleeping, another thing I cannot stand is any light, such as lamps, and TV turned on nearby when I am sleeping!

@Butterfingers it is better at least for me! What about you? Do you bear noises when sleeping or you just can't stand it?

If I'm very tired, I don't even care if there's an explosion beside me.
