What color should I paint my bedroom walls?

Currently, they are a bright, vibrant yellow and it's kind of getting on my nerves. It doesn't suit me at all.

My furniture is of the color "light beech" I think, or a little more vibrant... So obviously, that combined with the bright yellow walls is just too much.
My bedding is a beautiful shade of dark, grayish blue. I have purple curtains but I'm wanting to change them to white. I have a dark purple rug, too. Probably won't be changing that anytime soon.

A little about me.. I'm introverted, nostalgic and tend to think too much about everything in life. I love to read and draw. I spend more of my time around animals than around people haha. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm not the kind of person who should have like hot pink walls or something of that sort. Most of my time at home is spent in my bedroom, so I really want it to be a place I can feel like it's my own, if that makes any sense.

That's basically it. I don't want anything vibrant, or any really strong colors. I don't want anything too girly, either. Something calm, low-key and mature at the same time. I'm 20 but my room currently screams 14.

Any suggestions? Bonus points if you include a picture! :) thank you! I hope this wasn't too confusing or silly!

This blue would look wonderful http://2.lushome.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/blue-wall-paint-bedding-bedroom-decor-ideas.gif It adds a bit of color to the room, but it isn't overwhelming.

If you do go with color another color on the wall, I would definitely go with something in the pastel family.

Gray is also a wonderful option. It is versatile and your bedding will play off of it nicely.

Good luck! :)

I am currently designing my bedroom and need ideas.?

I have a very tight budget, so DIY projects are definitely welcome. I have three light yellow walls and one light blue wall. It is a small bedroom-my furniture consists of a king sized bed, a dresser and a bookshelf (both of those are tall rather than wide-they take up less room that way).
I'm looking mainly for ideas of wall art. I don't have a headboard and was thinking of making one myself, but I don't know, since my room is already small it might make it appear smaller.
thanks!

you can get an 8' sheet of plywood, cover it with quilt batting on one side, stapled to the plywood on the other, and a few yards of a fabric that goes well with your other decor to cover the batting, again stapled to the other side. Lay longways on the floor behind the head of your bed for an instant, cheap headboard.
Another cheap idea for decor is to get a large canvas (oil painting type) and some colors you like, splash across the canvas and let dry. Instant art. Pretty cheap.
Make the most of the room you have with underbed storage bins.
