Is it because despierta is being used as an adjective here? Thank you

If it is a polite request, why use the tú form rather than the usted form?

First of all, how to decide when to use despertar and when despertarse?

Second question, why can't we use levantarse in place of despertarse?

Would it be correct to use Porque at the start of a sentence....e.g. instead of

Como estoy enfermo, no voy a ir al trabajo hoy.

Porque estoy enfermo, no voy a ir al trabajo hoy

¿Enserio güey? Qué tal? Formal?

There seem to be a lot of confusion around this subject. especially when using the word 'some.'

Could you please explain the difference illustrated in these two examples.

Tengo muchas postales de Venecia, ¿quieres algunas?
I have many postcards from Venice, do you want some?

He imprimido nuestras fotografías del viaje, ¿quieres ver alguna?
I have printed the pictures of our trip, do you want to see some?

And just as an aside, the sentences in English should be separated by either a semi-colon or a period, not a comma.  When a comma is used to separate two independent clauses, it's called a comma splice or a run-on sentence.  I'm not trying to be a know-it-all.  This is in the spirit of having the best grammar.
