Yes, it's difficult here without a car. LA is VERY spread out. I would start by checking out www.metro.net to learn some of the bus lines you need. Also, UCLA has shuttles that go everywhere, so that will help. As a freshman, you don't need to go too far off campus anyway. The trick is to make some friends immediately... just make sure they have a car! :)

Driving schools here are not that expensive, especially compared to Germany. So you can learn here.

BTW, your English is very good.

Here's a funny riddle:

If you speak two languages, you are considered bilingual. If you speak three languages, you are tri-lingual. What do you call someone who only speaks one language?

American!
