Guys,
I am new to Lenya and have been working with it now to two days. I'm a java developer for my day to day job and was very interested in the lenya project. Basically I am wanting to setup personal blog and was wondering if Lenya was the right tool for the job.

no.
lenya does have a "blog" example publication, but it is not very actively maintained and misses some essential features (comment posting among them).

I've been reading a lot about WordPress and how good it is but I would like to possible contribute to Lenya in some form or fashion if possible. Currently I'm using version 1.2 as my test because 1.4 said it was not stable at this time.

it is safe to use 1.4 now, since it is in feature freeze and a release candidate is imminent.

Has anybody had success in setting up Lenya to be a blogging website? Figured out how to implement categories inside the blog example publication? Look forward to hearing back from those who use Lenya to learn its capabilities.

lenya is a wonderful tool to maintain websites, but it is certainly not the best tool for a blogger. it is of course possible to extend lenya to provide blogging features - the blog example publication tries to do that, but as i said, it's incomplete and hardly more than a proof-of-concept study.
