You won't get all the perks, so you need to decide which fields within the skills you specialise in. Atromancy or necromancy, frost, fire or shock for examples.
Take the cost reduction perks, don't get zero cost gear - it's a much more fun and progressive way to play. If you have up to the apprentice perk, don't use spells above that level because it will blow all your magicka.
When I have finished this playthru I am going to replay my Altmer mage from the beginning and have a go at making some tutorial videos. For now I'm playing a vampire/mage who is also an assasin. He spcialises in Necromancy and Alteration and has earned some assassin perks, so he's a little differen from how my pure mage will be. Here is a little video showing his skills and perks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5oy7V-pef4 and here is a video of him in action http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfEGZMU_YEk
