No.  Code released under the BSD license remains under the BSD license.
The derivative work created by combining BSD and GPL code may only be
distributed under the GPL, but you can pull out the BSD stuff (assuming you
can't find the original BSD code elsewhere) and redistribute it under the
BSD.

Yes, you can make up your own license.  I suggest you learn a bit more
about copyright and software licensing first, though.

I thought you didn't want your work to be available under the GPL.
