Pros definitely use chessbase. And without wishing to advocate doing anything illegal, anyone who knows how torrents work can find it on the net. DISCLAIMER - THIS IS PURELY FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES!
maybe put the study in notebook and copy/paste it in a study

I feel like I'm getting closer to the point where I might want to more formally save my opening repertoire and variations I'm familiar with in some sort of section, or database. What is the best way to do this and can I save it to a Flashdrive when done (or similar)?
I know some people save their opening repertoire as a study, or series of studies, on other sites (especially one we won't mention that begins with "L" and ends in ".org") and I also know that chess.com "library" or "openings" sections (partly in beta testing currently) might have something similar in the near future, but I feel like I'm going about this the wrong way. Where do chess grandmasters save their repertoires and annotations? Is it just a bunch of annotated pgn files? Is there some database-like function they can purchase? Are there ways to filter a search on positions? (and so on)
Thanks for pointing me in the correct direction everyone
Do what I did and make studies on listudy! I posted my repertoire in the Beginners and Masters Club.
I liked what you posted because it is nice to review your chosen lines like that, but that isn't exactly what I had in mind as my repertoire. In my mind, I'd have my "mainline" as what I'd play, but also annotate all the other variations and sidelines and my opinion of them/why I choose not to play them.
Due to this, my annotations would be the majority of it - not just what moves I'd play. It is my chosen moves, my opinions on the variations and why I chose what I did/may change to later.

So regarding my word document idea, I started putting PGNs into it and it looks like it could be very organized
And I'm just going to keep putting in different variations, separated by e5, c5, etc (Because im an e4 player)
SCID is a freeware solution for a chess database, for your word document take a look at MCO it has a nice layout for variations.
Is there a way to see which openings I’m winning or losing more with? I can’t really choose and I mess around with like 3 or 4. Mainly slav, Philidor and kings Indian defense. Just wondering if I could look ip how I’m doing with either of them.

chess.com has new openings stats like this they are working on now 
Alternatively, you could access them right away if you are in chess.com beta club
