Gen5 Battery drain

For some reason today when i came out of school my battery was drained and the car would not start. It has done it on some other just once. This is the second time it does it. I have been thinking about getting a new battery. Do you guys know why it is doing it?

Well, couple of days ago i installed some foglights and it drained the battery. I took them off recharged battery took car to dealer and they said it was fine. It lasted about 8 days and now it drained again. I havent done anything. Except i removed the fuse for high beams and i use highbeams on my car but there are actually low beams because there is no fuse.
