Staying in Paris for a month! Please HELP! :)

Hello there! :)

After a lot of discussion with some friends of mine, I have decided to travel to Paris with three friends for a month next year. We have decided to stay in Paris for this long, to try and live like the locals and to broaden our knowledge of the French language. Also, a friend of mine is a photographer and intends to do some photographic work over there.

I have know idea which arrondisment we should stay in. As young adults who love to party, drink, eat, see, shop and experience, we have our hopes on staying in a beautiful area of the city which is close to the tourist sights, good clubs and bars, nice bistros and has a magical Parisian feel. We are pretty fussy people haha :)

Can anyone please help us as to where about's in the city we should stay and why we should stay there.
Any help is much appreciated!
Cheers :)

How much do you want to spend?

You can do most of those things almost anywhere in Paris,but it will cost you a lot more in (say) the Marais than it will in more outlying areas.

And the good clubs and bars are not close to the tourist sights.

I am willing to spend approximately 2500 over the course of the month, and that would be including accommodation, food, tourist attractions, transportation and shopping. :) My friends have approximately the same amount, and of course we will split the costs of accommodation.

And when I said magical, I didn't mean fairies and wizards hahaha :) I'm sorry if I confused anyone. I mean't beautiful cobblestone streets, romantic cafes, that sort of thing!

So can anyone suggest a nice arrondissment or part of the city? Thanks :)
