i'm assuming you have some star charts of some description.
if not, you really need to get some. perhaps buy a nice star atlas from a book store, or borrow one from a library, or maybe download a free night sky simulating program like this:

theres plenty up there to see, even with the very smallest telescopes. i started out with my dads tasco 76mm newtonian, and it showed me plenty of amazing things.
to start with, the orion nebula (M42) and eta carina nebula (NGC 3372) will be great to view through your scope.
its kind of hard to just scan the sky expecting to see something, because a) you don't now what you're looking for, and b) you dont know where to look.
