You probably killed it. Why do you think that companies have rules against drinks being taken to offices, just to tick off their employees? Banging the keys is not going to do anything positive either. Liquids are conductors, and when inserted into electronic equipment have a tendency to turn them into paper weights.

Spilled coffee on laptop? --> Yes. Why no love? --> Love is the universal spirit of giving, but not everyone is aware of themselves in that way. Do your best to love yourself first of all and then acts of love can be accomplished to help others. Wanting love from someone else is less effective than offering love first to yourself and then having it overflow to others.
In this case, turn it upside down and shake out as much coffee liquid as you can and then perhaps turn on a fan to help it dry out. Be patient and resolve not to risk such a spill in the future. Maybe the keyboard will work once it is dried out. If not, request assistance from actual sources of expertise in your area (a computer shop), not your disinterested neighbor.
Well, it's not the end of the world, is it? It may help you to cry about it to get the hard feelings expressed. Then, take some deep breaths and let go of everything that is pressing on you as if you might do something when nothing can be done. That is, do what you can but not what you cannot do. Things get better when you gain experience and become older. Good Luck!

Shut 1: down the computer immediately. Step 2: Wipe up any liquid. Tilt the computer to the side to drain any liquids. Step 3: Remove any removable parts from the laptop, including the power cord, printer and mouse cables, the floppy drive, CD drive, modem cards and battery. Do not disassemble the laptop body to remove internal parts. Step 4: Once the parts are removed, gently lift the computer and turn it to the side and upside down to drain any liquid. Tilt the computer in a variety of directions to verify that there are no pools of liquid lurking, but be careful not to shake it or handle it roughly. Step 5: Repeat with the floppy drive and other removable parts. Step 6: Use a hair dryer on a cool setting to dry the laptop and its parts if you can. Step 7: Allow the computer and its removable parts to dry for 24 hours before you reassemble it and turn it back on. (If you are under a tight deadline, let the laptop dry for at least an hour before you reassemble it.) Step 8: If the computer does not work properly or does not turn on, bring it to a computer repair professional, although the damage might be irreparable. Spills are one of the leading causes of laptop deaths.

I suggest you seek proffesional help. After time, water alone can cause corrosion and the problems will increase, coffee could potentially be worse.
