It's actually one of my favourite subjects in civil engineering. You'll learn about rocks, minerals, soil, weather, and things that satisfy your understanding of the word 'geology'. The first and second modules were a kill. I bet no one got more than 50% for our midterm, and if someone does, he/she is insane and a 'geo freak'. Learning about those stuffs is fun, yet challenging.
Fact, there are more than 3000 rocks and minerals on earth's surface. You'll see about 200 of them in class. Each one of them you'll have to know about 7 properties. Additionally, you have another 7 things to memorize about their traits. 50 of them are included in midterm. Yet, you don't know which 50 will be in the test. There you go, blank paper.
The 'easiest' paper where I have more than 3 sheets stuffed with nothing, my mind stopped functioning in a 3 hours exam, and the look of my classmates don't give a damn when I'm trying to cheat.
Nasib baik, module 1 and 2 tak payah belajar dah. Tunggu final jela nak jumpa balik benda-benda tu.

Like any other subject, you'll have the theory and practical parts. Theory is easy, well not that easy but at least you can read those things in notes, books, wikipedia and other sources you can have access to.
But practical, put swear words here.
The first thing we have to do is to change a map into a graph. In class, you'll be given a map, and you have 6 types of them. From the map, you have to draw 3 graphs, in order respectively. 12 steps for each graph, a total of 36 steps you have to keep in mind. And what is frustrating, it'll be one of your final questions.
In the middle of completing an assignment, 3 maps in total, and I've yet completed one.
Ah, aku nak tidur !!!
