Hi Charla and welcome to IIS..I agree with the others 100%....you have yet to scratch the surface with your scope..to help you find intertesting things in the sky...a Planisphere and a good Star Atlas/Charts to help you find your way around the sky mainly finding the brighter key stars of the Constellations they apply to..from there you can locate the fainter stuff with your finderscope then through the eyepiece!!
As for collimation there are plenty of contacts around this forum..so please browse and enjoy!!
Cheers!
