Summary of pages 33 to 48
On page 33 they talk about Colonesls shoes and who pissed in. When they go to their lessons Miles show the boys who grab him. Furthermore Miles speaks with his actually grirlfriend Alaska. She says that she saw him in wearing not much and it makes him more amorous after she apologized.
A few days later Colonel and Miles talk about Colonels girlfriend and that she is a bitchy one. Both have also fun when they are smoking or watching a film...
Miles also think about the "Miles Halter Fan Club" It means that he had a fan club, which was made of teachers who liked him on his old shool. And on Culver Creek there the teachers aren´t interesting in the students and specially Dr. Hyde is very strickt to Miles and all others. Alaska also changes his behavior to Miles during this pages. Sometimes she is very friendly and flirts with him and then she is low and talks abot her boyfriend. On page 48 Alaska speaks about why she smoke. I" smoke to die" (ll 22) This shows the reader her real uncool, thoughtful, sad charakter.

What is meant with the labyrinth?
When I first red the part where Miles an Alaska were talking about the labyrinth I could imagine that it shall symbolise that it doesn't matter which step you take, there will always be problems, the problems are the walls of the labyrinth which refuse the escape. But if you go straight on you will find your aim.
So Alaska askes if the labyrinth is living or dying (p.23, l.26) and which you try to escape, the world or the end of it (p.23, l.27). So I guess it needs more experience of life to understand the quotation and Alaska is defenetly too young to understand.

Is Dr. Hyde a good teacher or a bad teacher?
In my opinion Dr. Hyde is ok as a teacher. I think it was not ok to throw Miles out of the room, when he looks out of the window. This reaction was overdone, because everyone looks out of the window in some lessons for a view minutes. Thats ok. That has nothing to do with the fact that the lessons are boring or so... Maybe he is a dreamer and a thinker and some students can think better if they look out of the window.
The reaction after seeing Takumi and Alaska smoking and seeing Miles and Colonel beeing there with boths was ok. It is not allowed to smoke. It is a shool rool not to smoke and so it was ok to gave them a punish. Smoking is dangerous and if somone break a rule, it is ok to punish them. I can´t find out more appearances where Dr. Hyde occurs in the book. So I don´t really know what kind of teacher Dr. Hyde is, but he is strickt and that´s absolutely ok. I would only say that he exaggerates sometimes in specific situations.
