   I am using the Arthemia theme and I want to know how do you post to a specific page? Thanks.

   When you create a Post or Page from the backend of WordPress, it creates that for you. It is not theme dependent.

   When you create a new post, tick the name of the category you want that post to be displayed under.

   Yes but it still post to the front page of my blog. What if I only want it displayed on my third page?

   Here's what you have to do, in a nutshell:
   1. Duplicate archive.php and rename it the way you want (eg. "blog.php").
   2. Make it a page template: http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#Creating_Your_Own_Page_Templates
   3. Customize its main query to show the posts of a specific category (change the category ID by the correct one):
   

   <?php//Add this before your Loop ?>
   <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; ?>
   <?php query_posts("cat=2&showposts=10&paged=$paged"); ?>
   <?php//Here your Loop starts?>
   <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   ...

   4. Create the static page you want to show the posts and assign it the page template you just created;
   5. Exclude the category from the home page:http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts#Exclude_Categories_From_Your_Home_Page
