What's the next element in each sequence?
If you'd like a clue see SJ247's latest happy puzzle. Similar idea.

I know what I had intended. It will be interesting to see if anyone can come up with a different answer that still makes sense. Any ideas?

You can "stop the action" and get rid of the smilies by simply making your own paper copy. I used graph paper with open squares to represent the plain smiles and filled squares to represent the big grins, when I was attacking SJ's puzzles. I found this very helpful as staring at (and trying to remember) the smily patterns as they blinked on and off gave me a headache.... :'(

I am incredibly stumped. I HATE this. I know it should be obvious.

I'll give a hint. My solution is not dependent on any particular language. For example, in your previous puzzle the solution depended on the number of letters in the English spelling for each number.
It would be interesting if anyone came up with a language which worked for this particular puzzle, and I would be compelled to accept it as a plausible solution. However, that wasn't at all what I had in mind....
