Murderer!

I've already killed two plants this week and now I 'm going to end up killing another one. Why do people keep giving me plants to kill? I'm okay if they're in the ground, but potted plants don't do so well at my house. Most of the problem is I have no sunlight in my house, all of the windows face the other building. I could put them on my front porch but it's been too windy lately. I really like this plant, it's a cute yellow Zinnia. I'm going to try really hard not to let Miss Zinnie die.
