So im still fuzzy on the gw2 story and questing and whats better to ask to ppl who have actualy played gw2. Is there a main quest in the game or do i have to wander around the world of gw2 to find a quest?

The personal story is the "traditional" story of the game, like Primary Quests + Missions in Guild Wars 1. They lead you somewhere (inevitably in this case: Zhaitan).
Dynamic events will flow with your story i.e. you have to go to a city but it's overrun or something, or you pass a caravan on the way, etc. However, again, the personal story is giving you directives until you beat Zhaitan or such that is the ending of the current Guild Wars 2 story.
Dynamic Events complement / exist with or without them and are a way to do stuff as one would expect in a game.

There is a primary story-line quest customized by the choices you make creating your character and from the choices you make following the story-line: Personal Story
There aren't secondary quests per say; instead, there are "Renown Hearts" which are areas marked on the map with a heart outline with a task to complete in the area. Once you've completed the task the heart will become solid. For more info you can read here: Renown Heart
There are also special tasks to obtain skill points marked by a blue kinda tent shaped icon: Skill Challenge
And Dynamic Events, that happen while you are exploring. Depending on the participation of players and the outcome of the event different events may occur in sequence creating a subplot story-line: Dynamic Events
You can get an idea of how the Renown Hearts and Skill Challenges look on the map by checking out the awesome interactive map that Dijabouti Jiggle found and shared with us the other day: GW2 Interactive Map
I've been having a little fun comparing this map to the map of GW1. I can't wait to go exploring for ruins.
The Blue Diamond icons on the map are Waypoints that help to get around the map quickly for a small fee after they have been activated: Waypoint
