Hi Sine,
I would say you are aspiring too much for a beginner. Do no spend your time for perl community activities when you have to tread a long way in the course of learning perl. Buy a good book on perl and go through all the pages, try out all examples, implement each example in your own way by using already learnt features. This may take a year or more. It is not so easy and require perseverance.
Best wishes.
Anil
PS: Simon Cozen's "Beginning Perl" is an extremely good book. Available online in the form of pdf documents.
