I installed Ubuntu using WUBI.exe last night which is running alongside my Windows 8.

When I boot up my laptop, I get given a choice between Windows or Ubuntu.

Am I running the full Ubuntu OS?

Every time I start my laptop into Ubuntu, my brightness is always on the lowest even though I set it to the brightest. My short-cut buttons on my laptop no longer work. For example, I use a 24" monitor to watch movies etc on, so using FN+F4 switches between displays easily. And using FN+F2/3 decreases and increases my brightness.

So far I love Ubuntu, but I'm very new at it. I do see myself replacing Windows 8 with Ubuntu in the near future.

Thanks for your time.

Yes, you are running the full OS, but not in the most optimal way. None of the problems you have will have been caused by this though, so I would advise against replacing windows until you find a solution for them.
