Check your fuses!!!

There are fuses for each individual light under the hood, and one main fuse under the dash.. Pull em out and check em out!!

^ This just happened to me tonight, I'm driving and I see one headlight is working and the other isen't. Then I drive alittle further and both headlights don't work. My highbeam works though. Anyone have any idea what I should do? I'm a newbie be all means. Can I drive with highbeams on just for a night? Will it drain my battery?

i know people who roll high beams all the time

why would it drain your battery. Do you know what an alternator is?

Driving with your brights on is a good way to get a lifted chevy to back over you and make it look like an accident. I would just not drive for one night.
