I was initially going to make 20 icons, but this month has been kind of crazy. So here are my 6 icons for monthlyinspo. I also included a brief summary of how the icon is connected to the school subject.

			Geography | Art | Foreign Language
			Literature | Music | Science

1: Geography: The background is a map of the South Pole.
2: Art: At first I was going to categorize the icon under drama (dramatic pose), but then I changed my mind because it reminded me of when a model poses for artists to draw. I think it's an art school thing, and it fit a little better I think.
3: Foreign Language: IU did a collab with Jay Park, and the song title ("Ga Na Da Ra") kind of fit the foreign language category because it's the way that kids go over the phonemes (vowel plus consonant) kind of like we go over the alphabet in English.
4: Literature: I used the first sentence from Emma by Jane Austen as the background text while I used a cutout of Emma from BBC's Emma (2009).
5: Music: Group shot of the Kpop group X1.
6: Science: This was really more for physics, but the equation L = Iω has to do with the physics of a figure skating spin.

Here is another smallish set for somein30. This one is normal mode. I wanted to do hard mode with the shuffled playlist, but I was having a hard time choosing a playlist, lol! ^^

Kim Yu-na | The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe | IU | Hyung-won |   The Lord of the Rings

#1: Let It Go from the Frozen OST (For this icon, I wanted to have an icy feel, so I kept the color palette in the cooler pastel range with blues and lighter purples. I also added the triangle texture  to give it a sharper icy feel. The text isn't specific lines from the song, mostly just references to various words from the lyrics such as "kingdom," "queen," and "ice.")
#2: I Will Believe by Nichole Nordeman from the Music Inspired by the Chronicles of Narnia (For this icon, I wanted to portray the reference to dreams as well as the gentle, tenderhearted-ness of Queen Susan, so I used light pastels for the color palette.)
#3: Blueming by IU (For this icon, the lyrics "우리의 색은 gray and blue," which means "our colors gray and blue" and "I feel bloom" are portrayed in the colors. The background, IU's dress, and IU's hair show the blues and grays, while her skin tone is a pink-tone reminiscent of blossoms.)
#4: Shoot Out by Monsta X (For this icon, I used the lyrics "dangerously swaying" while using a pastel coloring that is opposite of the lyrics, lol!)
#5: May It Be by Enya from The Fellowship of the Ring OST (For this icon, I wanted to show the hope of spring and better days, so I used the lyrics "rise to find the sun" and used yellows and bluish greens to give the icons a slightly hopeful, sunny feel.)
