My computer might be possessed

I will start by saying that I wake up very early on Fridays, like 4:30 AM early, and I rarely shutdown my laptop for the night, I only put it in sleep mode. Actually, I set my alarm at 4:20 AM and then I press the snooze for 10 minutes, that way, I am a little more awake.

But this morning was weird, at exactly 4:27 AM (or was it 4:27 and a half, I don't know, I don't have the seconds on my alarm clock) my laptop woke up from sleep mode. It woke me up because of the noise of the fans and the LED lights. I was wondering why that was happening so I opened the lid to see the screen, but it was all black. Roughly 3 seconds after I opened the lid, it went back in sleep mode. Or so I thought...

I arrived at school at 6:30ish and opened the lid and my computer acted like it does when it comes out of hibernate mode. I guess that's what it was doing earlier. But why would it do that? I mean, the only reason it would go in hibernate mode is if the battery was under 5% (i think). But the battery was full and it was plugged into the wall. And why wait 6 hours?

Not even an edit, because i found the reason while writing this(I take a long time to write): nevermind, I found out why. My laptop was in "Balanced mode" and it was set to hibernate after 360 minutes (6 hours) of inactivity. I guess this thread doesn't serve any purpose now. Well it may serve as a warning that your computer will go in hibernate, or even shutdown, when you set it in the advanced power options. And that sleep mode counts as inactivity time.
