Headlights went out while driving my 1994 chevy corsica

What is your question?

I was driving last night and the check engine light came on. I didn't notice any problem. then I smelled something like plastic melting. Then my high beams came on and I couldn't get them to go back to my regular headlights. Next thing I know, I have no headlights at all. Also, the car seems to lack power. I have to really step on the gas for it to go. I have no clue what could be wrong.
