ok so let talk a little bit a bout these phases
now first of all ,have been and has been are the same tense just for different people
so I can say I have been blah blah blah
but he has been
you have been,we have been,they have been
or you should remember "he, she ,and it" are always gonna be has been

so I've been running to write a book for along time
now I said I've been that 's a shorten version of I have been
right It's been dreaming of mine for along time to write the book it has been,it's been
ok so we are talking about something that sound in the past but continue in the present and still importance
like it 's been dreaming of mine to write a book
or I've been thinking about writing a book for a long time
use these right (has been ,have been)
ok now had been a little bit more checking
most of the time we just use the past tense
right but when we have a situation we are talking about the past kind of surprise the surprise come up
like ok when I travel to Vietnam in december 2014 I had been thinking that I may never have the opportunity to come back
but now I'm back it is march 2015
and I'm so lucky of opportunity to come back to Vietnam I love this country
and a lot of gonaturalenglish community is in Vietnam
so thanks listen you guys, Chao Chao to you Hello hello
umm so had been,I had been thinking when Zuuuu surprise something different happen
umm let see I had been thinking about starting a diet but then I start a candy bar
that looks really good and I just eat it so yeah give me some good energy to make this english tips
so it's ok right,you know I will replace it be this weekend and work it off no problem
ahh so again had been I had been thinking about something and then it change
so when something kind of changes suddenly I would use this tense when both thing had in the past
I had been thinking about you know diet and then I saw also past tense the candy bar
about something like that It happen to you
like you was thinking,you had been thinking about something and then something out happen in the past
so I almost say,I was thinking about so that another way I could say alright
I was thinking about dieting and then I saw a candy bar
so I think more more because it's easier just use the past tense
people are using the past tense in stead of had been
but if you want to emphasize the something happen farther in the past you can use had been
especially if they are major chance
umm like let see I had been working on another postcard project and then I started gonaturalenglish postcard
with you decide on Itunes of stitcher
ok so let I said a lot of time you can use it the past tense or this tense (had been)
right but again if you emphasize what is happen way back in the pass try out (had been)
right so if you want to try some example in the commence
go ahead leave your commence
I love to see what is going on your past
what are you have been thinking about
what you had been doing, you know in the way back past
