The correct answer is A. This is the case of using comma before a coordinating conjunction <em>and</em> because it links two independent clauses. We can observe that there two parts of this full sentence and each part is independent from each other. Both of them have their own subject and verb. Therefore, we are using a comma before <em>and</em>.
Muir starts off talking about how long he had been sitting by the Calypso-so long that he wasn't tired or hungry anymore. We, as the readers, think he has a bad attitude about sitting by this plant.
he is describing his wait as painful(he is WAY past being tired or hungry). However, the next sentence contrasts with this idea. When the sun sets, Muir suddenly gets this jolt of purpose and energy, stronger and determined than ever before. Can you see the pattern here? As for the dialogue, it is a woman speaking, and she lives in the log house he sees. She has a negative attitude towards the swamp, while Muir has a positive one. She wonders why he would want to be in a dangerous place like the swamp, explaining that a body was found in it. She then goes on to say that it was God's mercy that Muir was able to get out of the mucky swamp.
I was pregnant for the first time and as a first time mother, you become too excited in buying baby stuff. The impulsive decision that I made during that time was buying all the baby stuff regardless if it's really useful or not as long as it is sold in the baby store. I made that decision impulsively out of excitement. When I gave birth to my baby, a lot of those things were not used at all, especially the clothes and it was a waste of money. If I had the decision to make all over again, I would carefully choose what things that are really needed so the rest of the money will be used to something more useful instead, such as milk and diapers.
