I thought I'd give everyone an update. I ended up re-potting it in a larger tub of pine bark fines and a little perlite. It kept tipping over in its old pot. It's grown quite a bit and sadly not the direction I was hoping for. The stems are still too short to bend upwards towards the post so it's mostly growing sideways. It took two people to carry the pot up the porch steps onto the porch and tomorrow it will have to go in my room again. I completely forgot to get a CFL this year so I may just use one of my old Sunblaster bulbs for now. Here's some updated pictures of it. The aerial roots are probably 2-3 ft long and they're everywhere. I don't know if I can move the totem on the side that's sticking out since it's firmly in the pot. I told myself I will not let it grow past the totem because I won't be able to move it. It's been through a couple of frosts too.
