Thinking of wiring a ethernet cable through the walls up to my bedroom and then connecting it to a rj45 plate. Although i have heard that the longer the cable the worse your internet gets, is this true? ill be using about a 30 metre cable.
Does the internet signal get worse the longer the ethernet cable your using?

If you're connecting to the LAN side of the router then 30m of cable will make no difference.
If you're talking about a phone line extension for the WAN side of the router then there's a chance it'll reduce your sync. It really depends on how good a job you make of it.

Ethernet cable is good for 100 metres before needing repeating so will be fine.
