Are there any Sydney people/people who've been to Sydney around these parts who can explain the sections for the buses? They really could have made this so much more straightforward. I'm quite sure Melbourne's public transport makes more sense than this.

If you're planning to travel around a lot in the one day, I would suggest you get a daytripper. This saves you the hassle of trying to figure out which ticket you need for which trip with x amount of sections to cover. It also means that you don't have to worry about the Prepay bus issue, and it also means you'll save more money in the long run! The link provided should have details on where to get tickets from.
On the other hand, if you're planning on commuting from Paddington to Circular Quay more than once, you're better off getting a travel ten ticket (get the brown one, it shouldn't be more than four sections for that trip) and using that. They're single use, but just keep dipping them until you run out of valid rides.
As for catching a train and thena bus - the day tripper is good in that it lets you catch trains, buses and ferries all on the one ticket with no additional costs. Normally I would recommend this to save you the stress of buying multiple tickets, but as you're coming from the airport, the day tripper won't cover that train trip :(
You can get day trippers from the same machine that sells normal train tickets at the station, and you can find a lot of transit stands selling bus tickets around stations and the city district.
Hope this helps! If you have any more questions, or if I'm not clear enough, feel free to ask and I'll be happy to help out. Have a great time in Sydney :)
