Chances are good that water entered into your notebook. I suggest that you immediately stop using it and power it down to prevent any further damage. Then pay a visit to either the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider to have them take a look and provide you with your options. Whatever, you do, don't waste your time placing the notebook into rice or any other form of desiccant as this potentially will cause more issues than resolve them.
