Go as far as your own requisite tin-foil hat/OPSEC allows you to!
Personally, I recently left EUni and am trying my hand at solo piratey PVP and debating between joining a w-space corp I really respect or Dreddit.

I've been admiring the battle reports from those TWEED fleets.

Ah, yes those have been fun. I've been on nearly every one of them. Great concept!

Mostly PVE stuff. I just don't have the time or money for PVP - and no friends who play. So, I've done some low sec stuff, but never get very far in it before people annoy me too much.
When I first started, I used to go down to 0.2 and speed tank NPC battleships in belts, which I found very fun and profitable. But bored PVP people with nothing to do would wreck my little destroyer because they had nothing else to do... just fly over and wreck my ship because I dunno... bored? They got nothing from it - didn't even ask for bribes and there was no way my wrecks had anything to offer, just lame ass T1 junk. Didn't pod me. Didn't cost me anything but time - but that was the most important thing to me. This griefer style practice of trashing my fun time for no reason annoyed me, so I'm turned off PVP in general.
I have two accounts, so I specialized one in building things and the other in salvage at first. This worked out pretty well, even in high sec. Plenty of tin cans to recycle running missions and Lev I and II are a breeze in a destroyer. But I never really got around to building much or selling anything really. Eventually, with no one to talk to about the game, I got bored and quit.
But I like the game, so I came back after a while. Stayed longer this second time. Specialized one account in stealth and scanning for for hunting up sites and wormholes. Specialized the other account into hardcore mining. Found a little corp of people I knew only online and flew with them for a while... nice people, but the game bored me again. We were teaming Lev IV missions and doing some wormholes for mining monies mostly. Eventually, got bored again and took another break.
This past weekend, I'm back to it again. I was "playing" some lame Facebook game when I realized that one form of click grinding and time wasting is pretty much the same as another and at least in EVE I can have a cool world to play around in while doing it instead of YawnVille.
Maybe this time I'll consider getting more into PVP or something? Or at least learn how to sell things or make things. My main account is my salvager/scanner/hauler and my second account is my builder/miner, so I'm pretty self-sufficient if I want to be. I'll probably copy my earlier habit and move to 0.5 again and mine while listening to cool tunes on Pandora. Would be nice to hook up with someone, I suppose, but people always seem to be jerks or be "this r serious game, we iz serious playas!" ... meh. I'm just looking to hang out most evenings. I won't conform to someone's schedule.
Considering a new business as a long distance smuggler though. Buy me a blockade runner and FedEx some loads fer cash... always need lots of cash.

EVE University is a good corp to join in your position. Lots of opportunities to try different things and a strong community, with frequent mining, PVP and incursion ops. You'll probably be a better fit than I was if you don't understand the sublime beauty of destroying other peoples' toys.
Also, I wouldn't mind buying a mining alt (especially if it has the gas huffing harvesting skill to V). I don't want to sully my pew pew main with industry skills and with the wormhole corp I'm in it's nice to generate the extra ISK when there aren't sites to run or people to pod.
