okay so I spilled maybe a quarter glass of wine into my MacBook pro keyboard and immediately turned it upside down and powered it off.
tried hair drying it for a bit (I know this might have been a mistake)
then I just let it chill with the keyboard upside down on some paper towels
then I read that putting it in a bag of rice helps.
so I did so maybe an hour or two after letting dry. and I tried my hardest to keep it upside down the whole time
I left the MacBook in a sort of upside down V shape in the bag of rice
opened it up today (2 days later) and it wasn't sticky at all and I got my hopes up...
tried turning it on and nothing... FU*K
maybe Im getting my hopes up but I read that a few peoples turned on after three days of drying
I have it currently with the lid closed laying upside down
what should I do? and is it a lost cause?

oh jus a bit more info (sorry of u feel like ur reading an essay I just want to be a little thurogh)
I powered off the laptop about five mins into the accident and all the keys seemed functional
battery seems to be working considering the battery bar has two bars when I checked
and I took the back off for a while when it was upside down to take the battery out but didn't have the proper screw driver- damn apple to using a screw that requires three sides instead of the normal four
but it said do not remove under any cercomstances
sorry if there are typos I'm used to there being a spell check lol
please help!!!!
