Elaboration on ideas

Having thought more about my portfolio, I am stuck between two ideas--the elephants and the clothes. I am not sure which one will work better because they would both be pretty fun to do. However, at the same time, I am finding it slightly difficult to determine how to thread my reflections and assignments into the portfolio. Each of these ideas is ideal for a writing center website, but I am not sure they are ideal for a portfolio. So if anyone has any ideas about that, I would love to hear them.

My thoughts are as follows. If I do the elephant theme, then I will link the major assignments/lessons to a certain elephant. Then, I can link the smaller reflections/assignments to things in the background, for example decorative flowers or trees. If I do the clothes option, then I will do pretty much the same thing. The major assignments would be attached to the more important pieces of clothing, whereas the smaller assignments will be attached to smaller articles of clothing or accessories.

I do realize that these two options are a little difficult, but I am trying to be original. The whole idea of a journey would work quite well, but what I got from Dr. Fishman is that a lot of people have done that before, and I want to be a little different. If you have any ideas on how to help me, please let me know.
