Heart not behaving normally, chest pain, heart beating quick

Hello, I am an 18 year old male and I have been experiancing abnormal heart behavior. Recently I had an episode while I was sitting where my heart paused a longer time than normal, then started pounding hard. I have no prior history of heart problems. Ever since then for the past two weeks my heart has been behaving abnormally. Something as simple as jogging for a few moments or walking up a set of stairs causes my heartbeat to race very quickly. It makes my breathing become sort and quick. After a about 30 second of rest, my heartbeat becomes normal. However, i feel tightness in my chest. I have not been very active the past two weeks because I am afraid my heart will start racing again.

1) Should I become active again?
1b) Has my decreased activity made my heart weaker?
2) What is a rational explanation?

I have been going through the same thing for a few days now. My heart pounds so hard that I can hear it in my ears. I have also been, just tonight experiencing a sharp quick pain close to the center of my chest and a burning sensation on the right side of my chest... it's weird.
