An Engineer’s Christmas: Fun, Merry and Bright!
Christmas is definitely just around the corner.
Carols fill the air. Lanterns twinkle in every street.
People excitedly wander about malls and bazaars.
Families and friends come together exchanging beautifully wrapped parcels, big and small.
Indeed, there is no better time to surprise your loved ones than during this festive season.
One of the most popular Christmas songs is the “Twelve Days of Christmas”, which revolves around the different gifts the narrator receives from his “true love” on each day counting down to Christmas.
As we approach the holidays, let us enliven your timeline with this familiar Christmas carol, with a signature GineersNow twist.
This is our own version of the “Twelve Days of Christmas” featuring gifts that we thought engineers, students and professionals alike, can relate to.
Don’t be shy. We know you’ll be singing along….

We hope you enjoyed our version of the “Twelve Days of Christmas”. After all the hard work you dedicated to your studies, your jobs or your projects this year, we hope you can take some time to relax, laugh and have a little fun.
Merry Christmas, our dear engineers, and may the next year be filled with love, hope and badass engineering innovation!
