high rpm bad for engine?
Is shifting at high rpm, bad for my engine? Im not talking about redlining or anything, is shifting around 4000-5000 rpm gonna effect my car at all besides gas mileage?

No. You're fine. Your motor mounts might take a beating, and your clutch might wear more than it would when shifting lower, but that's nowhere close to what it would take to hurt any Honda engine.
