Evolution and Creationism are the same thing

Well, from what I understand, CREATIONISM does not necessarily mean Young Earth Creationism, does it? Therefore one can believe in Old Earth Creationism? That is to say, Theistic Evolution?

Creationism is really an umbrella term. Most people use it to refer to Young-earthers, though it can also be applied to Old-earthers, gap-creationists and (rarely) evolutionary creationists. Theistic evolutionists, on the other hand, aren't generally referred to as creationists (as far as I know) nor do they apply the term creationism to their beliefs (again, AFAIK)...
