I am dual booting Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows 7 so I created a partition where I can store all my documents and open them through both systems. Everything seemed like it worked out well, I found out how to change the default locations of Documents, Videos etc. but whenever I restart my laptop, they reset. This is what my user-dirs.dirs looks like after I've edited it and it works well with all shortcuts and save locations working correctly:

and after a restart, this is what happens to the file:

Is there any way to make permanent changes to this file?

Most likely it removes those entries because the directories do not exist at the moment when you log in. So I'm guessing /media/storage isn't mounted at that point.

Did you try to use symbolic links? So the media don't have to be mounted.
