Use of 'a' with time generally use of 'un' when engish has 'a'
I am confused if a should be included in time phrases that begin with como. Two examples I have recently seen
eran como a las cuatro
Sal de aquí como las cinco
It seems like the a is always dropped in time phrases with other prepositions like hasta. Is this correct?
also an ongoing confusion for me is when to use un for example
toma asiento
toma un asiento
soy ingeniero
soy un ingeniero

a todo vs de todo
One of the sentences I came across in my studies is 'Los niños van a ensuciar a todo' with the translation, 'The kids are going to make a mess of everything'. I don't understand why it is 'a todo' and not 'de todo'

use of aparte
I came across this sentence
'Aparte siempre está bien irse luego a tomar un café por ahí después de las tiendas'
The provided translation is
'Besides it is always good to go afterwards to have a coffee after the shops'
Is aparte something to do with a partir or is it subjunctive of apartar?
Is there a better translation of the whole thing?

Why is subjuntive used in this sentence? I thought there was an exception for 'a lo mejor'
A lo mejor me puedo quedar con mi amiga cuando visite Chicago
