Direct,
First, congrats on the solo! Feels great doesn't it?

Second, I agree with fourstroke. It was likely that the wind dropped suddenly letting the plane fall out of the air.

Whatever the case, it taught you a valuable lesson, at a fairly reasonable price. Keep the airspeed up a little when landing in the wind.
