I was wondering if it was ok to sometimes leave my Laptop on all day, or would it over heat and blow up or something??

It is bad if you are not using it, that is a total waste of electricity, because with new features like hibernation it can use ludicrously little power, even from shut down it boots up extremely fast, unless you have malware. If you leave it on for too long the battery will become lame and weak and not hold charge at all. All batteries will.

no, but enable power settings to go into Hibernation or Standby after a certain time. Also, enable passwords on your laptop, to protect it from unauthorized users.
That way you system is offline, safe from spyware/viruses, and your system maybe locked (password enabled) so the information is safe in case your laptop 'disappears'.
Also, to save your hinges, don't close the lid when you don't need to.

conserving your computing device or computing gadget on all day relies upon on utilization. operating your computing device all day isn't large, on account that all elements have a restricted existence span. yet turning on and rancid a computing gadget a number of cases by the day is risky for elements like the processor. The heating and cooling of the elements causes them to enhance and contract, reducing their existence span extra so than only leaving it on. because you understand you opt for to save target up, set your potential settings to without delay turn off your reveal screen and to teach off the not ordinary disk after a particular era of time. the purely different interest is warmth advance. Does your computing device have sufficient air circulate to save the computing device cool?

Most newer systems can survive being left on all day. But if you must keep it on atleast close the screen...
