Default Headlight Issue :( Please help!

One of my stock head light bulbs burned out after about 35,000 miles. So i replaced both with some Hella High Performance Xenon Blue Bulbs and I've only had them in for about 2 months and tonight I noticed that one was out and then later on the other one was out. Is it just me? Are these bad bulbs? or is this a normal thing with 3s? And what is my best option for new ones?

I was running Silver Star Ultras in mine and the left one kept burning out so I put the Sylvania Extra Visions in mine.
But first I would make sure the Fuses are not blown.

If you are getting power to your headlights at all, the fuse is not blown. How old is your car, it sounds like a short. Check for corrosion around your connections.
