Answer:

My turning point was when I was called to work at the Okianus company. After finishing
my academic practices I received that wonderful news.

I remember that day I was so excited that I couldn't wait to tell my parents the news.
When I finally got home they were very happy. They have been very proud of me since that
day.
It has been 2 years since I am working and thank God everything has gone very well.
Today I am about to finish my career and I have a job where I can carry out my profession.
What I really want is to continue growing as a person and as a professional, I hope to fulfill
each of my dreams and above all enjoy life.
