How do you make friends as an adult?

Smiley, the only way I have found to make friends as an adult, is to join a group or a workplace, and one of the existing members adopts you... so to speak. If there is some other way, I'd be interested to know what it is. :)

Should I go to trade school?

Give it time. I can appreciate wanting a change. I myself am looking for a new job.

Perhaps even before applying to the college, go in and talk to the career counsellors. They may be able to direct you better to what you ultimately want to do.

Does this novel already exist?

I look forward to it!

I didn't think my first book would ever get done... Now I have four published books and a few more on the way.

It really is just a matter of sitting down and starting. And don't worry about how good or bad it is. Just write the first draft. Editing is what makes the books good... not the writing.

Should I go to trade school?

If you want to make the parts then you would need to be a machinist. But manufacturing is quite a bit more complex, than attaching/removing parts.

Does this novel already exist?

I would certainly read it! :)

And the only way to become a writer is to put pen to paper (figuratively speaking)

Should I go to trade school?

My advice in general on the topic is that age doesn't matter as much as the trade you want to go into. Generally, the trades are a good choice simply because there will always be work in the trades. Whether mechanic is the best choice to go into or not, I can't say.

I do know that gas fitters are one of the best paid of the trades... and that electricians have some of the 'easiest' work comparable to other trades. But at the same time, you need to do something that you enjoy as well.

When it comes to the trades most of the courses you are going to take are pre-aprentice courses. So, find out what the tradespeople in the area want. Someone may prefer to take you on as an apprentice without having to take a course beforehand. Or they may want you to take this course, but not that one.

I don't think so. At least I've never heard of it if it has been done.

Hi is anyone good at Excel??

Though I'm late to the party, and you fixed the issue, I've found this link helpful when it comes to using Excel.

Does anyone know how to re-dye army pants a solid colour?

Likely the easiest way would be to go to a black...
Or if you want to have a lighter colour, then bleach them, and then dye them to the desired colour.
