 * I have hosting through hostinger and I’m trying to figure out how to install 
   a theme to work with wordpress but I need to know how to install wordpress and
   where to install it. Also should I use wordpress.com or .org with the theme which
   is from themes2go.

 * You have a theme in hand already? You already have purchased hosting?
 * You’ll probably need to install WordPress with your hosting from Hostinger… ask
   them for help if you need it.
 * You also will need a domain name. Pick a domain that suits your purposes, hopefully,
   a dot com domain name.
 * Your domain provider (possibly your host can help you purchase a domain) and 
   your host should be able to get you fixed up and point you in the right direction
   to get your theme installed.

 * Hostinger offers several different hosting packages, with the lower tiers not
   including free domain registration. That being said, you can either register 
   a domain through them or pick another registrar & use their name servers.
 * For WordPress, they offer it as a one-click install so it works with their cPanel
   structure. I would consult with them on getting it installed on your instance.
