Dude,
You have the world at your feet, smile at your good fortune and have some fun. If it were me, I'd go back to that sorority house with a buddy holding a camera and try a different journalism segment, perhaps determining how many women wear thong underwear. You'll have a lot more fun.
Next, if I didn't know exactly what I wanted to do, I'd go travel around the world. Sell your old Saab, its not doing anything for you right now anyway. You'd be surprised how long sveral thousand dollars will last you travelling in the developing parts of the world. You'll come back with a refreshing perspective on how lucky you are to have the luxury to make these choices you are fretting about.
Then, I'd think about what do I like to do. If you choose a career that is interesting to you personally, you'll work harder at it because you like it. The harder you work at it the better you'll become, and then you'll be surprised how money will find you. Start down a path that will make you happy, and then maybe get rich, rather than starting down a path to get rich and probably be unhappy.
Last, I would hold off on any grad school until you know why you are going to grad school. If you don't have any specific reason to get an advanced degree, then you are probably doing it to avoid wasting time doing something else, and higher learning demands a better reason than that.
Please report back with tales of your exotic travel, or at least with some details about thong underwear. Have fun, its the journey that matters, not the destination.
