A paper wallet maybe the best option for op

Yes, but it is too complicated to generate secure paper wallet for average person

That and I do not have a printer; all I have is my laptop, a 2.0 GB USB drive and a Windows smartphone.

You can write the public and private keys down instead. Just go with blockchain.info for now and/or get an electrum wallet and encrypt it and back it up on the usb.

I just installed Electrum on my USB drive. There's a tab that says "Receive" and there are 5 BTC Addresses (or what look like Bitcoin addresses) underneath. Are these my offline, USB addresses?
