First of all, no, you can not change these sentences/expressions the way you suggest. Most of them don't even make sense. "Mir ist" usually refers to a physical state, some outside influence on your body, often unpleasant, e.g. "Mir ist kalt" (because the room isn't warm enough). But I don't think you need to remember any rules in this case. There are just a few expressions regularly used with "Mir ist": "Mir ist (nicht) kalt/warm/heiß/schlecht/übel/schwindlig/unwohl" Otherwise simply use "Ich bin" (which usually refers to an inner state), e.g. "Ich bin kalt" means that you're an emotionally cold person. "Mir ist schlecht" (I feel sick) is probably an exception to this rule, but please remember it, because "Ich bin schlecht" either means that you're a bad person, or that you're bad at doing something: "Fällt Dir die Aussprache im Deutschen leicht?" - "Nein. Ich bin schlecht (darin)." Hope this helps. Regards, Susanne
