It purely depends on your interests, if you are interested in programming phones, you should go for embedded.

PHP is used in web developing the most, so unless you want to be a web developer, there's no practicality in learning it.

Perl, it is used by unix/linux administrators, but it is a good language to be learnt, cross platform, but a lot are switching to python (correct me if I'm wrong).
