Can't stand the mirrored sliding doors that came on all the closets in my apt. I'd like to create standard double open-out from the center hinged doors, without having to hire a pro. Help!

Unless you own that apartment I wouldn't unless you get it in writing from management its ok. You can put non-adhesive decorative window film on them that won't damage them, check on Amazon they have a ton of colors, designs etc
Before you do anything in your apt, if you are leasing, you had better check with the landlord. You don't want to spend money and then find out you can have your security deposit back later.
I am an owner so happy to make whatever changes necessary :)
I am thinking you will need a carpenter for those kind of doors. Will you have room in your bedroom to open doors like this? Meanwhile you could do two things.....take the doors off completely and put a curtain up if you want, OR put something on the mirrors to cover the mirrors, like wood looking contact paper, window film or check around at some stores for suggestions..
