Answer
Hi Leahhh (alot of h),

Budgies are strange little birds. They go through phases of being moody and cheerful. I am going to assume that she is only going through a phase. Maybe she is getting ill. Feed her a food from your local pet store that is NOT a variety. Varieties give them the opportunity to pick out their favorite food pieces from their dish. This is bad. They need what is the best healthy choice. Give her lots of love and attention!
