in your case any regular halogen bulbs will have a longer life span than the HID kit you bought.
PIAA is a bit pricey but I love them and is all I have. They never disappoint. They also have alot of different color temps you can go for.
If you are worried about budget go with Sylvania Silver Star Ultras and I repeat ULTRAS, beacause the basic Silver Stars are ok but not the same by any means. I have used them and they were awesome for their price and pretty comparable to certain PIAAs
Life spans vary on Halogen bulbs but you should be fine for a while. at least 12 months

I'm actually in same boat I was going to get an H.I.D kit but I don't want to deal with the hassle of retro fit or hunting a headlight that had it so I just went with GP Thunder 7500k on the headlights and fog lights GP thunder 8500k and I've been using them for the past few months and there pretty good I had siverstars ultras before but i didnt like the way they shoot out but its was pretty decent
