Times square in New York City for New Year's Eve!

There just cannot be a more overrated location than this!

So it was 2012 New Year's Eve and I was there at Times Square. Little did I know that people started queuing since 08:00 and I went there by 17:00.

I stood at 49th street and 7th Avenue in the midst of a heavily packed crowd. People weren't allowed to come inside or go outside the block. I stood there for 7 hours or more without moving an inch. All for 10 seconds of ball drop.

Then I promised myself that I shall never spend a New Year's Eve like that.
