hi and welcome aboard!

you should do some diving, practice your skills for a little bit, and let your interests
dictate what you do from there.
 
Welcome to the diving community. The best advice is to Dive, Dive and Dive some more. Find other people form your OW class or other friends who dive. Join a diveclub in your area and go to one of their group dives. There a number of dives set up by scuba board members in the local dive areas check those out but to paraphrase Nike "Just Dive"

I have to agree with the others. Your better off to dive, dive, dive and see what your interests are. Talk to some of your dive masters or diving friends and see what classes they got the most enjoyment out of. One thing I would suggest, perhaps even before being concerned about actual "specialty certifications" is the advanced open water class. The navigation skills alone, if you keep up the knowledge after class, could at worst case scenario save your life and at best case save you a heck of a surface swim.
 
Hi DVD, welcome to SB!
Get some dive experience and get a feel for what you might enjoy, the work on those specialties.
