I hope you had an amazing time celebrating your birthday last week but here’s to hoping these messages extend your birthday high a bit longer.

You are such a blessing to us all! I’m so thankful for you (and your existence haha) and you being a constant source of comfort (“You’re fine. We’re fine.”), happiness, and energy. Thank you for all of your guidance, support, and patience 😅. Btw, i’m still in awe of your poise, how you client management, and you as a person. Haha

Can’t wait to meet you in person!

❤️France

Hope you have the most awesomest time ever! Super happy to have met you - you're such a force for light and all things good. I look up to you so much - will never forget the night we were both up and I was asking for support HAHA : ) Which you were so ready to give, even though we were on different teams.

THANK YOU SO MUCH ALSO for hosting us in your home in Iloilo - that was one of the best vacations everr huhu. I loved trekking at night, climbing 300+ steps (??), and just hanging out with you, Chelsea, and Sophia <3 I hope we can go back there when things are better, and for more SG parties in Iloilo char vinolunteer.

You have the biggest heart and you give so much so my birthday wish for you is to take time for yourself and relax. <3 Plus Trixie Mattel and Drag Race content. Always here for you! <3

Many happy returns!

I miss working with you and your overall presence. Thank you for your kindness and thoughtfulness, and for teaming up with Ana for the pep talks and the reminders to eat lunch or drink water or stop working and just pick up where I left off the next day.

I miss seeing you at the office and having non-work conversations. I hope we have a less-disoriented gathering in a coffee shop or food court or restaurant very soon (though that time at CBTL in Podium was still pretty funny and memorable). I hope you will always have simple, quiet reminders of joy and love to hold on to and remember. Much love to you and yours. See you soon, Shay! XOXO from a fellow Marshmallow

Dearest Shay, on your birthday

Happiest of birthdays to you, Shay! Thank you for bringing your brand of sunshine :) I'm not sure I ever told you but if it weren't for your warmth and support, I would have been very scared in my first few months at SG. You really made me feel welcome and will forever be thankful for that :) I miss your voice and your laughter! I hope your birthday (and many many days after) bring you inspiringly sassy quips and memorable earrings ;) I do look forward to having a repeat of our movie-watching day and dinner (as well as catching a drag show - ikaw talaga una kong yayayain) when it's much safer :-*
You go, momma. Thanks for always being you :-*

Love, Zane

Happy happy birthday, Shay!! I hope you had an amazing day and having an amazing month so far despite the all-of-a-sudden ECQ! I miss being in our EOW scrums together 😭 I hope we can all play games and catch up again very soon!! -Bea

Happiest of birthdays, Shay, my fabulous ray of light. I have spent early morning client calls and late night live editing with you, and you have always kept my spirits up. Thank you for introducing me to Tinker. I miss you both. -- Macy

Happiest birthday to one of the biboest recruits that ever walked in my screening table hahahaha! That remains to be one of the most memorable interviews I've ever had - and you know it! I'm always proud and pleased with how far you've taken your energy and drive from that day in the glass room to all your interactions with clients and SG teammates. I have nothing but great appreciation and admiration for everything you do. You continue to inspire me to be energetic and positive. I just wish you na lang the best of health and the most rest and relaxation please - because you so deserve it.

I'm hoping to get to cook more butter chickens and chilis for you in the very very near future. Until then, please take care and eat well, okay?

SA-SHAY ON YOUR BIRTHDAY

narinechua — 2021-08-23 15:28:25 UTC

Dear dear Shay,

My goodness, where do we even start?

From the way you patiently answered my questions during the (very rigorous) SG hiring process, to the way you'd generously hold space for me in our Bible studies, to our joyous early morning song swaps, to how you've made me a better person by modeling how to be enthusiastic, vulnerable, and kind -- I can truly go on and on -- thank you SO much, Shay, for being who you are and enriching people's lives in such specific and concrete ways.

I hope that last August 20, you felt love from all corners of the world. May our good Lord cover you and minister to your beautiful heart, and may He truly be your heart's treasure. <3

Isang malaking yakap sayo, Shay. :)
Imma bring out all my self-cleaning confetti for you. <3

<3,
Najee

Love you Shay! You are a gift!

Hope you had an awesome and memorable birthday!

Happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you had the best bday and ate the best food without gaining anything besides happiness.

Thank you for all that you do for the company, but more importantly, me (i meant the mentorship and support you give me but if you want to take it another way, that's fine too). You're such an amazing human and i can't wait to meet to see if our energies actually explode! (sorry Kayla :( )

Dearest Shay,
If you went to a conjunction party, which one do you think would hit on you?? HAHAHA
Wishing you a wonderful year ahead! May you be blessed with meaningful moments and great memories with those you love.
Thank you for sharing your light with us. Your energy and signature dose of extraness has not gone unnoticed. We appreciate all the ideas and creativity you bring everywhere you go. I hope we can see each other in real life again sometime soon to celebrate your awesomeness. I miss our movie nights and Friday night adventures after work, whether they be in the Grass Room *not* crying over products, or in the wilderness of BGC and Ortigas. Any adventure with you is sure to be filled with laughter and ganap hahahahah
I miss you loads! Hope you had a birthday worthy of Big Shay Energy <3
Lots of socially distant hugs and love
~Ana 🥳

Happy happy birthday, Shay!

Dearest Shay,

Wishing you all the best on your birthday! I don't know anyone who is more deserving of all the love and care and happiness that you'll be receiving today.

Not only are you a fearless leader in SG but you're a friend to all. You make all of us feel welcome and loved and heard. And you bring so much joy and laughter into our lives.

I miss you a lot! I hope to see you soon and get to feel light you bring to everything you do. In the mean time, I'm just a call/text message away.

Happy birthday, sister!!

To one of my most favourite people in the world!! HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY (you're technically my Ate until October hits hahahaha). I really can't believe how amazing the universe is for letting our paths cross - promise, it feels like we literally grew up in the same household or same neighborhood or something hahaha!
Genuinely, I know joining SG is one of the best decisions I made in life because it led me to meeting you who I know will be a good friend I can trust for life huhu. Thank you for being such a good influence and energy in my life (and everyone else's in SG).
Super miss our adventures -- reading all day in Fully Booked, Starbucks runs, sleepovers and watching movies (even if i end up sleeping halfway through the movie), timezones, karaokes, kenshin nights!!! So many good memories huhuhu!!!
Know i'm here lang, always, if you need anything. I'm always praying for you! Love you super duper, Shay girl!! See you in Iloilo (hopefully aaaa)!
<3, Gee

Happiest birthday, dearest Shay! :)

coconuttier — 2021-08-24 01:45:26 UTC

I miss youuuuuu!!! I hope you had an awesome birthday... and let's extend it pa to another week, or month??? Because you deserve to be celebrated and to celebrate!! I am blessed to have you as a colleague, mentor, boss, and good friend. Thank you for sharing your beautiful heart and mind with us; for the support and friendship. I feel blessed to be around your warmth and kindness. :) Madami-dami na rin tayong pinagdaanan -- proposal parties, writers block, tough client calls, analyzing WASH things, grass room watch parties, bomb scares (luh), wild mountain car rides, biglaang treks with poor footwear choices, cat tita duties... alam mo yan. I will always treasure those memories. =)

And alam ko may mauulit jan (yung fun and safe lang pls, wag na yung scary haha). I still look forward to the day na makakapunta ako sa Iloilo. Hopefully with our team and you showing us around -- ung long overdue adventure naten doon. :) Until then, I'm always an IG msg away. I really look forward to what else you can accomplish, you amazing human!

Be the light. Shine bright! hahaha ang labo talaga =))))) HUGS to you! :)

- Coco

Happy birthday, Shay!
