Usually about 10 hours when I don't have anything to do the next day. During term time though it can be as little as 4, depends on my mindset.
 
I get about 8 hours sleep, anything less and I just dont function properly 🙂 I think I might be coming down with a cold or something because for the last 2 nights I've slept for 12 hours straight.
 
Usually between 7-8 hours.

Honestly, I don't know how some of you do it. I can get one night of 6 hours or less (down to an all-nighter - hey, I'm still young 😉), but the night after that I need my time to sleep properly, otherwise if I try to go by on 6 hours or less the second night as well, I'll just sleep through any alarm clock.

I guess I'm pretty spoiled that way, but that's the advantage of being a Master student and basically having no fixed schedule anymore. I haven't set an alarm clock in about 4 months, I think, and I always just go to bed and get up as I please.
 
I usually get about 7-8 hours of sleep a night. I used to be able to get by on a lot less, but I can't fool myself anymore... I'm getting old and I need to sleep. LOL

I know that feeling! lol
About 8 hours. I've disciplined myself in to going to bed at 10pm during the week so I can get a good nights sleep. I'm usually up just before 6am for work. I tend to go bed later on a weekend but I still like to get up at a decent hour which is usually 8.30/9am. I've noticed if I get less than 8 hours on a frequent basis I get grouchy rather quickly which isn't good.
 
Usually between 7-8 hours.

I get up for work at 7:30 (but my alarm goes off at 7:00 so I can hit the snooze a few times because I am horrible about getting myself out of bed), and hubby and I usually hit the hay around 11 pm. I'm almost always asleep by midnight.

On weekends, we still usually never stay up any later than one, and I still wake up before 8:30 usually. It's rare if I sleep until nine.

This is hilarious and shocking to those who knew me in college, where I'd stay up until at least 2 am, even if I had an 8 am class, and on weekends I'd consider it an accomplishment if I was awake before noon (awake, not out of bed or dressed...the laptop was right next to my bed, after all! 😛). On weekends I usually went to sleep when the birds started singing, and slept from about 6 am to noon.

I just can't do that sort of thing to my body anymore. It likes a regular sleep pattern or it refuses to function.
 
4-8 seems about right. It's like spinning a wheel and I'll wake up on whatever it lands on of those 5 hours.... I try for 7-8 though!
 
I jut can't sleep anymore 🙁 when I was younger I could sleep for hours when I was little I would go bed at half 8 and wake up at half 7 feeling so
relax and peaceful, then when teenager you couldn't get me out of bed I hated school days cause I had to get up early I would go to bed after midnight and wake up at 1pm or 12pm on weekends or holiday it was that bad my boyfriends at the time starting doing the same and my best friends did too. But now I just can't sleep even if I'm about to faint I sit in bed close my eyes and just lie there without sleeping I mean I'm typing this at 4:10am!!! The birds are singing and the sun is coming up (lol sounds like a song) and I'm not even tired 🙁 I would wake up at 9am or 10am a lot it's been 7am I think it's cause it's stress 🙁
