Skinning + Herbalism/Mining until 70.
@ 70:
PvP = Alchemy.+ Herbalism
PvE = Alchemy + Herbalism
The exception to this rule is if you are a very casual player who will want to make his own gear instead of running instances or doing battleground/arena for it. Then go skinning/leatherworking.

Don't do whatever these people do just because they tell you to.
Use your own mind and decide what YOU want to do. Herbalism and alchemy gives you access to some very useful potions, including agility/armor buffs and "infinite" health pots for whenever you get in trouble. You will also be able to transmute stuff, which is very useful once you can transmute your own primals in outland.
Engineering gives you access to all kinds of gear and gadgets, goblin engi is the bomb - literally - with lots of explosives, jumper cables XL and the awesome rocket launcher etc. Gnomes get the poultryizer and some other junk. ;)
Leatherworking is alright, if you skin and train this profession you can make some rather decent gear for yourself, but also several types of bags later on which sell for nice money.
If you just grab two gathering professions you'll miss out on all the benefits that two matching professions will give you, and that's dumb. You'll also run around constantly with your bags full of leather and herbs/ore, and need to dump all that onto the auction house regularly which is a bother.
You'll easily get more than enough enough cash anyway for a mount at levels 40 and 60 if you just mine all the mine spots you see and sell the leftovers on the AH; even copper will give you good money because three professions need that stuff. Herbalism used to be da bomb for making cash, but these days pre-outland herbs are worth just a fraction of what they used to. You won't get rich selling Peacebloom and Earthroot like you do copper ores, that's for sure! ;)
I'm mining/goblin engi on my rogue. I like it a lot. You could try it, or something else if you think you'll like that better. Don't just do like others tell you, that's a waste. If you want to be ordered around, join the military! :P
