It's a Spotted Orbweaver, possibly Four-Spotted. From what I can find, these are widely variable.

Hmmmm, thank you for your response :) . I have looked online for Spotted Orbweaver and looked through lots of pictures and I still can't find any images of spiders that have the same markings on its back than this one. Its a mystery to me. :)
