Two personal variables to use in a productions possibilities frontier?

Question

Hello--

My profession has asked us to write an essay using the concepts of the production possibilities frontier choosing an example from our own life when we had make a decision that required us to choose between alternatives.

I'm choosing clothing and food as my variables to keep it simple and easy.

My question though, does someone have a better idea that I could possibly use as the two variables for my PPF?

any suggestions would be extremely appreciated as I feel that the ones I have picked are too weak.

Since you don't produce clothing and food but you consume them, they are poor choices for a PPF unless you are Robinson Crusoe living alone on an island. Students produce A grades and all-night parties. Probably a good tradeoff there.
