If you are looking to buy stocks, I would advise looking at certain indices rather than individual stocks. I don't think the casual investor should try to play their money in the stock market when they are truly not devoting a decent amount of time in researching stocks. It takes a lot of time to know what positions to take, and a lot of following the market and news to get a good grasp on individual stocks.
You may know that when you invest your money in Roth IRA, that money is taxable. So keep that in mind. I just graduated as well, and I'm putting 10% into Roth IRAs that I allocated between 70% stock indices and 30% bonds.

OP: At your age, I would go all in on either/all of these Vanguard blue-chip equity funds: VDIGX, VDAIX, and VEIPX. Take a look at the top 10 holdings of each.
Also, compare these funds to the top blue chip funds at Fidelity, T. Rowe, and Pimco
