Answer
Mexico City is a great place to visit for a month!

It would be nice to have some more details about what you are looking to do in Mexico City.

Anyways, you can rent a decent (not a first rate hotel, but clean and safe) hotel room in downtown Mexico City for about $700 pesos per week, but that's with a shared bath. It also includes free internet in the lobby and a safe for your things. You can get a room w/bath for about $1,000 pesos per week. It really depends on what you want. There are many hotels in the Centro Historico (Downtown) which is close to many sights and things to see and do.

Yes, there's human flu in Mexico. It's also in the US and now it's in many other countries.

As for the cost of daily living: A ride on the Metro subway system costs $2.00 pesos (less than $0.20 US cents), a short taxi ride costs about $20 pesos, a bus costs about 3-4 pesos in the DF.

A tour of the city by Turibus costs about $150 pesos for all day.

Food: A tamale and a cup of atole (a steaming hot rice drink, often Chocolate or strawberry flavored) costs about 15 pesos. There's your breakfast. Lunch at a small-medium family run restaurant, the set menu comida corrida which usually includes soup, rice, beans, a main dish (enchiladas, beef or chicken steak, fish etc), a dessert, tortillas and a drink of agua fresca (flavored water, like juice) should cost between $40-50 pesos. Dinner: six tacos and a coke= $38 pesos (5 pesos per taco, 8 pesos for the coke. So your total for one day of food= $93 pesos mas o menos (more or less) and that's way under $10 USD at the current exchange rate of about $13.2 pesos to $1 USD.

Here is a list of prices for Mexico City. Some of these seem a little low, so maybe the list is a little old:

Answer
1: Don't paint the room too dark. Despite what television and movies may say, most of us have small bedrooms and painting it dark will make it seem even smaller.

2: Do, however, find a way to incorporate your favorite colours. Accent pillows, posters, bedding, lamps, etc. are all wonderful ways to bring some colour into your room.

3: Don't use your 14 favorite colours though. Pick no more than three. Try to pick ones you've liked for a while, and ones that look good together.

4: The bed is the focal point of the bedroom. Make sure the bedding goes with the rest of the room (As a tip: making the bed makes the rest of the room look neater too).

5: Make a list of your favorite things that you might like posters of. Bands, places, paintings, movie stars, whatever. Now slowly work the list down. You could cover every inch of space with posters, but that would cost a small fortune. Also think about what ones would go well with the rest of your room. If you were to paint your room pink (I know you siad nothing too girly, this is just an example) and then get posters of skeletons... it won't make any sense and will look bad. But don't leave your favorite things out either, try to plan the room to get everything you love in there, without making it a huge collection of mismatched items.

6: If you are planning on moving furniture get a big sheet of paper and a coule regular sheets of paper. Measure your room and make a scale drawing on the big sheet of paper (1 inch for every foot is fine). On the regular sheets make scale drawings of all your furniture and any new furniture you may get. Be sure to use the same scale. Cut the pieces out, and move them around on the room drawing until you find a set up you like. This prevents your having to move everything 400 times until you're happy.

7: If you need more storage and can't build out: Build up! And under, and around! There are all kinds of creative storage sulutions that people over look. Get a big plastic storage container that will fit under your bed and keep your off-season clothes in it. Put sheleves on the walls for those trinkets and books. Put hooks on the back of your door for belts/scarves/bags/hats. If you have a lot of stuff that needs storage and not much room it can seem like a daunting task. But if you just step back, relax, and think about it, you'll get all kinds of ideas!

8: Most of all, have fun.

Good luck! If you have any questions or need some more help, feel free to email me.
