If i am sitting at my desk with the laptop open but not awake. Black screen. Without touching anything, it comes to life. Is something accessing my camera or something nefarious happening here? It just started doing this maybe a few weeks ago and it seem to be happening more often.

If you have some type of update that runs every day, it might turn on to do that update. What happens if you don't touch it? Does it go back to sleep on its own?
One thing you might do is turn off your wifi/internet in the house (or whatever signal your computer is using) and then see if you get an error message when it turns on, such as "Such and such program unable to update due to no access to the internet" (although the message won't say that exactly).
