I know exactly how you feel. I am 13 and weigh 70 pounds (though I am enjoying it very much). :3 If only I were taller... I'm 4'10. Everybody in my family is a bit on the heavy side, actually (they all have brown hair and tanned skin like Italians, though, and I'm as pale as a ghost, so why am I surprised?).

Make sure to get as many servings that the Food Pyramid suggests that you should. I will admit that I often don't get all of my servings; I'm never hungry enough. Make sure that you get a lot of calcium and protein. Milk will help, so make sure that you get the correct amount of it. If you have a high metabolism, like me, eating sweets is not going to make you gain weight. As an experiment, I ate foods high in fat and sugar for a week and did barely anything - I gained not even an ounce. They'll just ruin your body and won't bring your weight to a desired one.

Hmmm I have a question...as far as lifting weights and stuff to gain some muscle mass, is it better to do more repetitions of less weight, or less repetitions and more weight?

I'd say more repetition and less weight, because you're less likely to strain yourself from trying to lift too much. ^_^
