Here's a quick suggestion for the lighting problem if you're REALLY tight on money after buying your lens:

Lens Reflector

Basically, this is a reflector that fits around the end of your lens and bounces light back at your subject. It's not a perfect solution, and a flash would be better, but this works great if you've got some natural backlighting.
