Guys, help me out please
This makes sense right?
>Independent clause, coordinating-conjunction (subordinating-conjunction) dependent clause, independent clause.
Example:
He walked, and as he smiled, he looked at the sky.
It's the "and as" that's throwing me a little.
Or would the sentence look like this (w/ a comma before the subordinating conjunction:
He walked, and, as he smiled, he looked at the sky.

I would rework it to be IC with conjunction, DC, DC.
He walked and, as he smiled, looked at the sky.
You need something more than a coordinating conjunction or a comma to join two indep. clauses. By sticking the conjunction before the comma and removing the second pronoun you are left with the single IC and a more syntactically correct sentence.

Grammar is such a bummer. I really don't care as long as it works.
Though, focus up if you're writing an essay or something.
