Hippie room make over

Okay, so I got new furniture three or four years ago, I might be leaving here within two years, but I'm going to re-do my room anyway. No new furniture of course, but I'm going to rip off all the wallpaper (hehe, just thinking about it makes me happeh) and put paint on the walls. That alone will make my room stand out, 'cause here, in this house, all the bedrooms have wallpaper.
But I'm taking it even further. It will be black with different neons and day-glo/ glow-in-the-dark paint splashed on it. The ceiling will be either black or dark blue and I'll stick glow-in-the-dark stars and stuff on it.

I'm going for a psychedelic/ hippie look, but with rock, punk and maybe a little "eastern" (Chinese/ Japanese) influences. I did some research on hippie rooms and the ideas I've run into, are awesome. I'll be using almost all of them. I do really like the glow ideas, like the stars and paint. I've always loved it, I just never knew what to do with it. Now I know.

On one hand I'm all excited about this, on the other hand I want to save up for a VW Type 2 1960/1970. Better known as a Hippie van. I'd want to have that thing as soon as possible, but there are a million other things I want too. I could put up the list, but I'll just leave that for another time. This one is for my room.

I want the whole deal, bĂșt (!) if I want a hippie room, in my opinion, I've should try to stick with the hippie-idealism and try to make as much as I can, on my own. That's only right, right?

I'll post pictures (or a little video) of my room of how it is right now, the things I have and the things I want to get.
