If HTML, and PHP are foreign words to you, probably the best way to start a blog is to create one on a website like blogspot, blogger, or the more community-based livejournal. These sites allow you to create a blog for free and are geared toward the average computer user, thus the limited degree of customization they provide is generally intuitive for average users. Most blogs are hosted on these types of sites, and they usually also allow for a degree of html editing, which will enable you to further customize the site.
As for changing the color of the scrollbar and text: Text color is easily modified in html code. Probably the easiest way to do this is with the font tag.
Ex: the colorized text where XXXXXX is a hexadecimal RGB color code.
What the hell is a "hexadecimal RGB color code"? The short answer is don't worry, just go here: http://www.webmonkey.com/webmonkey/reference/color_codes for a list of examples. A longer answer is that each XX represents a color value in the order Red Green Blue, so the color code represents a mix of colors. Hexadecimal is simply a base 16 number system were the letters A-F are substituted for the values 10-15. FF is effectively the highest color value for each color. So the color code FF0000 would result in the color red, 00FF00 the color green and 0000FF the color blue. 770000 would be a darker shade of red, and FF00FF would mix the colors red and blue producing purple.
Changing the scrollbar requires that you define a CSS style. This can be done with the following html placed within the head tags:
where the above XXXXXX's are hexadecimal RGB color codes. go here: http://www.htmlbasix.com/scrollbargenerator.shtml for more information

You can go and get HTML off of a site like myspacecodes.com or something like that. Even if it's just for myspace, you can stick the HTML in a blog and it will fix it. Ifyou want to change text color you just write or something

The answer depends on the specific type of blog you're referring to. What's the name of the blog?

You have to make a stylesheet. I'd recommend going to a bookstore and buying a book.
