Work out like crazy or go on some all-day excursion. Get the nervous energy out of your system.

Be at peace that there are only two outcomes: (1) Yes, and what will you do in response? and (2) No, and what will you do in response? This isn't a fill-in-the-blank type problem, you can decision tree this out right now. Once you get comfortable with (1) and (2) then nothing can really hurt you beyond that.

Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes.

ask your mom what she did to block out the crushing disappointment when you came into the world and employ that strategy

Make a cup of coffee and sit down. Put your problems/concerns in two buckets. Can I influence the outcome -> Yes/No. In your case, you've done the superday and that's that. You should focus your efforts on thinking how you performed and what could be better next time. Or even better, apply for more positions/hit the phone and network with bankers. Read the daily stoic or Meditations by M. Aurelius, can put some things into perspective.
