ChiSau don't get too hung up on landings or the solo thing as others have said enjoy your flying. Eventually the weather ewill co-operate and because of the experience yuogained doing PFLs and so on will stand you in good stead especially when it comes to glide approaches.
The best piece of adivce I was ever even about landings is "fly along the runway at about 2ft make sure power is at idle and "then try not to land" works every time (well almost every time)
The other great truism is "a good landing is the product of a good approach get the speed right on final and pulling off a good one is a lot easier. It just clicks one day and pretty soon after your instructor will say "right once round...don't forget if you are not happy go around...have fun"
