It depends on where you what to go.
To just learn a simple easy language, VB.NET or some other BASIC*.
But to do something with it as in creating web pages, or web apps or windows apps or mobile apps then maybe
Java or C++ or C#.NET.

For web stuff, HTML and CSS and Javascript or jQuery and JSon.
If you're going to persist data, (store data for later), you will probably use a database and need SQL.
Probably stay away from PhP and perl and Ruby on Rails.

*(before everybody jumps on my case, I use VB.NET at work.)
