How the Artist in Me Was Born

Being a self-proclaimed artist, allow me to label myself as an art enthusiast. But before anything else, let me tell you a fragment of the story of my life so you’ll know how I became an artist. I was an only child of a very hardworking pair of power couple who were overachievers on their own right. Since they [my parents] both had to have a job so they could provide me a comfortable life, I ended up ushering myself to school activities where both, if not, one of them should have been there to support me. Nevertheless, I didn’t feel pity at all because I understood why it was impossible for them to show up on an activity that didn’t exactly need their immediate attention. As a result, I became independent. My parents introduced me to books and reading materials at a very early age. They encouraged me to do a lot of reading and comprehension while waiting for them to come home from work. It didn't take long till I grew fond of reading [it reached to a point that I couldn

What's it[the blog] about?

My 2nd name Klaudine [I have 3!], is a polish variant of the french name Claudia, which means lame or lazy. There had been many disputes regarding its real meaning but what's important is that the title of this blog, Klaudianism, will hold reflections of my personal credence and remonstrance [or the lack of it] towards/about the changing times. I'll also be sharing things that you may not necessarily care about at all. *p Nevertheless, like everyone else, my point of views are adorned by isms — which you need not to agree with. Through this blog, I hope to bring some information and inspiration to you, if not, I just might spark a worthy argument. :)

Quick Summer Trip (Cebu 2011)

I really hate the idea of being in an airplane but I had no choice (as you can see my worried face in the first photo). Hahaha!  I couldn't make it any more obvious than that.  But I needed this trip.  Haha!  My best friend, Rachelle Mercado went with me on a quick trip to Cebu.   We were just there to snoop around at the mall and meet friends =)

Water Action

the BEST Rapids in the Philippines is Cagayan de Oro River. We were so fortunate to have one of the finest Raft Guides of the country on our raft, Kuya Maldo (along with the other CDO Bugsay Raft Guides who are extraordinary themselves). We may have just tried the ADVANCED LEVEL but we're so going for EXTREME next time around, God willing. So, if you do get to have a chance to try white water rafting in the CDO, make no mistake about it -  CDO BUGSAY RIVER RAFTING is the one for you.   I'd say, do have efficient SunBlock on and re-apply them from time to time, be on appropriate clothing too (I believe there are some tips on the website), bring some water & munchies 'coz it'll take hours before you get to a pit stop for lu
