I have Ubuntu Gnome 13.10. In the beginning, the first user account I created was considered as my administrator account. I changed that account to Standard now and I can't make it back to administrator and whenever I make some changes in my computer, it is asking me for a administrator password which I don't have now.

You should login as root user and add grant you sudo rights (edit /etc/sudoers). If you don't know root password, so just reset it by login into single mode (add single or init=/bin/bash to kernel line at grub menu (during boot)), then you will boot to root cli and can reset root password with passwd command.
