When you receive money, PayPal will first deposit the funds in your PayPal Account Balance - once the money is there, you can withdraw it to your bank account.   When making purchase, you can select your payment preference during the checkout process.   See this FAQ.

So if a friend wants to send me money through paypal...does she just need my email address?  How does that work?
