Among those, only ハジける is a slang word. The others are regular words written in katakana only for the author's own aesthetic reasons.   

キミ = 君
フリ = 振り
トキメキ = ときめき

ハジける = to act or speak in an open and uninhibited way. In other words, "to go crazy".
弾ける = to split open, to burst open


Your Japanese proficiency shall be in direct proportion
to your true interest in the Japanese Mind.
