its normal.
i've noticed on both toyota's my parents own (91 previa and 94 corolla) that if you start it, headlights will turn on automatically. BUT if you start with the handbrake engaged, the headlights won't turn on. so maybe that's why the lights are off when you start the car. my aunt has a corolla LE around your car, but i'm not really familliar with their car.
