well 1st off congrats on them yams m8.
you can just hook em up straight from the pc/laptop via "phat jacks to small jack" adapter,
and then wait till you have the cash to go xlr connection/audio interface.

Im thinking you need 3 1/2 mm connector to 2 x 1/4 inch connectors and you are set to go. Then save the cash to get some kind of soundcard. I use a Native Instruments soundcard which is great for the job, as I got massive as well for free
