she talks about her fiance and her 8 month old baby all the time.
she is getting married in july and she is always saying how much the dress cost. how she is having her hair done. ect...
she goes on about this stuff constantly even if we are talking about something else like college work she manages to bring it into the converstaion.
she never want to hear about anyone elses personal lives.
also when the tutor asks us if we have any questions and i have one she looks at me like i am stupid and always has a sarcastic answer for whatever i say.
one of the other women on the course has noticed it but no-one else has.
she really pisses me off so much. but everyone seems to like her.
it isnt bullying
what should i do?

Let her rabbit on - what does it matter in the long run? People are not blind to what she's like, they're probably just being polite. If she's talking to you about stuff you don't want to listen to, either change the subject very obviously, or walk away. If you're stuck beside her, tell her she told you already when she starts - she'll soon learn you're not a captive audience. I would ask her why she's giving you funny looks and saying sarky things when you ask a question - make her explain herself every time she does it. Better yet, stop the class to ask her to explain herself.
At the end of the day, it sounds like a personality clash - this will happen to you more than once in your life - how you deal with it is up to you, but you shouldn't feel like you're intimidated or made to feel bad by her. Stand up for yourself quietly and with dignity.
Good luck.

The queen 'bee type' are very good at this, they develop a power base of sycophantic types and use this to undermine anyone who challenges them, or doesn't allow them to be in charge. They can charm other people, but are actually very false. Whispering campaigns etc. Don't be tempted to compete with her, kick her into touch, and then don't let her see that anything she does affects you. Ignoring them hurts them the most.
