>> Georg (starter) got neglected last semester with some stuff going on and went off after a roommate left some food to get moldy in the fridge :( so the goal this semester is to teach that roommate how to monitor expiration dates and use my starter on a more regular basis.<<

It can be very challenging to keep a fridge with nothing past-due in it. Some folks keep a minifridge for their cultures.

>>I want to try doing a smaller bread loaf next week (we're rehydradating a backup this week). Cause I cannot get through a whole large loaf on my own without freezing it.<<

Well, there are small-loaf pans, or you can try shaping artisan boules.
